Although I’ve decided to go with Purrfect Date for my Community Game-A-Long during #DatingSiMonth, I wanted to do a quick post highlighting some interesting looking free dating sims, available on Itch.io, for anyone who wants to just dip their toe into the dating sim waters.

Cooked With Love: With a playtime of only about 20 minutes per run, you can cook for your crush. Will you win them over, or crash and burn?

Hot Date: If, like me, you’re more of a dog person than a cat person, you can go on a speed date with a pug!

Last Minute Love: It’s never too late to find that special someone. Play as a nursing home resident, hoping to have one last great romance.

Kill Your Darlings: Dating can be scary! Who will you woo during the masquerade party?

Dino Dearest: Win the heart of one (or more than one) delightful prehistoric creatures.
I’m hoping to play all of these myself this month, but if you beat me to any of them, let me know how you liked them!
