"Dating.sim is a light-hearted romance roleplaying game inspired by the TV show The Dating Game as well as the “dating simulator” video game genre. Dating simulators are narrative-heavy games where players can date one of multiple eligible characters via choose-your-own-adventure-style conversations. Make the right choices and a character might like you more, make the wrong choices and they might like you less. Dating.sim recreates this structure through competitive roleplaying, with players improvising multiple-choice options for one player to select over the course of a date.
Ever seen a Witch, Knight, and sentient Robot compete for the affection of your kingdom's Princess? In Dating.sim this may very well happen! Play as any type of fantasy character you can imagine. But are you in it for love or do you have an ulterior motive like fame or money? Only you will know...
The game has two parts. In the first, the Lead (GM) asks the Contestants questions and ends up picking their Date. In the second part, everyone collaboratively narrates how the date went. If you gain the most influence, you get to narrate the final result. Will it be true love or a total disaster?"
This game will be great if you like choose-your-own-adventure, improv, Monster Prom and other dating sims, and collaborative storytelling.
We will build characters in the session.
You only need a general character concept, not a fully fleshed-out character.
This session will be especially good for new players. New players are welcome.
