The game was exhibited by Flare Media Ltd. at an expo, with hostesses in pink dresses promoting the game.[5] The developers wanted to release the game during February 2001, ideally on Valentine's Day.[6] The game went on sale on March 21, 2001 in Britain, and those in other countries could purchase the game online.[7]
While Flare Media assured Bonusweb.cz many times that they would send a demo of the game, they never did. Bonusweb.cz was only able to review the game after a community member who had bought the game sent it to them.[8]

German gaming magazine PC Games strongly criticized Erotica Island, calling it "shit" and an "idiotic pseudo-adventure" with "atrociously bad" graphics, and gave it an overall score of one percent. PC Games summarized the game as a whole as a game about "small dicks and big boobs ... and absolutely nothing at all", further stating bluntly that "if you play this game longer than five minutes, it's your own fault."[12]
