Dating simulation games started gaining popularity in Japan during the 90's. However, this was never the case in other parts of the world. Video game magazines that I read regularly would cover Japanese imports and niche titles, but dating sims were merely a curiosity and nothing more.
Things are very different now. The games industry has grown exponentially and modern gamers are interested in titles beyond the scope of the action, shooting and role-playing genres. We've been seeing stronger interest in PC gaming lately, and we have the rise of Steam to thank for this. The PC is an open platform with tons of great development tools, making it ideal for small indie developers to target. Steam on the other hand, has made digital distribution cost-effective, efficient, and accessible to a massive audience. All this is a huge boon for visual novels and dating simulation games, which would have lingered in obscurity outside of Japan, otherwise.
A bevy of 2D hotties are waiting for us to make the right move. Let's see if we've got what it takes to establish fulfilling relationships with them with the best dating simulation games out there!

Sweet Fuse: At Your Side

Available For: PSP


The majority of dating simulation games usually has the player assuming the role of a male protagonist in the lead role, as he tries to win over the hearts of several beautiful girls. Sweet Fuse: At Your Side on the other hand, introduces us to Saki Inafune who'll be romancing six hunky guys for a change!
What's even cooler is that Saki happens to be the niece of famous Japanese video game designer - Keiji Inafune. Well, considering that Comcept co-developed this title, it's easy to make the connection.
Saki is hurled into a suspense-filled mystery, where her uncle is held hostage, and she's determined to save him in a theme park that's about to blow. But she'll also encounter the other men who she may end up saving, and even, developing a deeper bond with.


Clannad

Available For: Windows, PS2, PSP, PS Vita, PS3, S3G, FOMA, Xbox 360, Android


If you're even mildly interested in dating simulation games, then there's a good chance you've heard of Clannad. It was developed by Key and initially launched on Windows PCs back in 2004, selling incredibly well. So much so, that it was ported to other platforms and also received anime, manga, and film adaptations. There's even a variety of magazines, books and drama CDs for dedicated fans who wish to complete their Clannad collection.
Clannad's visual appeal is immediately apparent; the beautifully illustrated cast of characters and backgrounds are impressive. And the gameplay will engage even the most discerning of visual novel fans with its branching plot line and multiple endings.


If My Heart Had Wings

Available For: Windows, PS Vita, Android, iOS


If My Heart Had Wings is an eroge visual novel with a fair amount of risqué content, at least for the original Japanese release. Unfortunately, the English localization is censored which takes some of the edge off. I know purists hate that, but that's just the nature of the beast.
But don't let that put you off, as this still ranks as one of those dating simulation games you need to check out. You'll assume the role of Aoi who was formerly a member of a cycling club at his previous school, but after injuring his legs he retires and heads back to his hometown. Here he'll meet several beautiful girls, who'll hopefully help him bring back the spark that's missing in his life.


Katawa Shoujo

Available For: Windows, OS X, Linux, Android


Linux and Mac OS X users have often been treated like poor stepchildren, especially when it comes to receiving game ports. It seems that Windows users have all the fun, while users of competing operating systems are left out in the cold. Fortunately, the tide is changing since the latest wave of dating simulation games also support Linux and OS X.
Katawa Shoujo is part of this brave new world, and hopefully a larger audience will dig into this unique visual novel. The story revolves around high school student Hisao Nakai and the five young women who he encounters. They all have their own disability to deal with, which makes for a thought-provoking experience to say the least.


Grisaia no Kajitsu (The Fruit of Grisaia)

Available For: Windows, PSP, PS Vita


Yuuji Kazami executes black ops operations for a Japanese government agency. He now leads the life of an ordinary high school student after transferring to Mihama Academy. Here he'll meet several interesting, cute and sexy girls such as Makina Irisu, Sachi Komine, Michiru Matsushima, Yumiko Sakaki and Amane Suou.
There are five main plot lines for each girl with multiple endings. The player must choose from several options which will either progress the story further, take it down a different branch, or end it abruptly. Most gamers will probably be looking forward to the CG scenes of Yuuji having sex with the heroines.


Sunrider Academy

Available For: Windows, OS X, SteamOS + Linux


So you're browsing through Steam, and looking for a gripping dating simulation game. The good news is that there are many to choose from, but you may have limited time to play all of them, or on a tight budget. Therefore, you'd prefer to focus on a few key titles. If that's the case, then you should definitely add Sunrider Academy in your shopping cart.
You'll assume the role of Kayto Shields, who's the vice president of the Sunrise Academy, but is also appointed as the school club manager. He's got until the end of the year to fix these up, and also get a girlfriend within this time period. Kayto's gonna be a busy bee, indeed!


Shall We Date? The Niflheim+

Available For: Android, iOS


Many dating simulation games on this list are aimed predominantly at the PC market. A few have received ports for consoles and mobile devices though. But we've yet to cover a title that's aimed squarely at the mobile market.
Shall We Date? The Niflheim+ is just the right dating sim for gamers on the move. The gloriously exquisite artwork is striking, and truly pops out on the small screen. It's mix of light gothic horror and romance make it an exciting proposition for those looking for something different!


HuniePop

Available For: Windows, OS X, Linux


HuniePop is one of the most popular dating simulation games ever made by a Western indie game developer. And boy is it good!
The sexual themes are strong in this one, and the girls are incredibly hot. It's also refreshing to see a dating sim combined with an addictive tile matching puzzle game. A clever move on the developer's part, as this provides endless re-playability. You'll certainly be playing this one for hours on end.


Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love

Available For: PS2, Wii


I've been a huge fan of the Sega's Sakura Wars series ever since the first title appeared on the Sega Saturn. Sadly, this is also a series which was often passed up for English localization – a major bummer!
But it's not all doom and gloom. One of the most accessible and better titles in the series is, Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love which did receive an English release.
It takes place in 1920's New York where Shinjirou Taiga, a naval officer is tasked with leading New York Combat Revue's Star Division. Here, he befriends and works together with the ladies of the Star Division against the forces of evil. It's deeper than most dating simulation games, as it combines a tactical role-playing battle mode where the key characters pilot cool steampunk-type mecha.


Eiyuu Senki: The World Conquest

Available For: Windows, PS3, PS Vita


Similarly to Sakura Wars, Eiyuu Senki: The World Conquest also provides a turn-based tactical element to keep dating simulation game fans happy, who also like a bit of strategy to spice things up.
The player assumes the role of a mysterious male hero, who must conquer the world. But to achieve his goal, he must battle all the world leaders who happen to be cute women who are named after famous historic male figures.
It's a well-presented game, with a fair amount of sexual content, strong language, alcohol and drug references. This one's definitely no kiddy game!


Dating Games Honorable Mentions


Hey, once you're hooked on dating simulation games..then you're always looking for your next fix! Here are a few more titles for discerning game fans.

Hatoful Boyfriend available for: Windows, OS X, Linux, PS4, PS Vita, Android, iOS


Moa Hato is the creator behind the Hatoful Kareshi manga. But her creative activities don't end there, she also went on to develop the Hatoful Boyfriend dating sim with her doujin circle - PigeoNation Inc.
It's quirky as hell, mainly because the key characters are anthropomorphic birds!

LovePlus available for: Nintendo DS


Got an old Nintendo DS sitting there collecting dust? Well, you can still acquire a ton of cool games for it.
If you're partial to collecting and playing Japanese imports, then LovePlus should definitely be on your wishlist. It was well-received in Japan but is one of those titles that slipped through the cracks, and didn't receive an official English localization.

Tokimeki Memorial: Forever With You available for: PC, PlayStation, Sega Saturn


Tokimeki Memorial: Forever With You is an oldie but a goldie!
It's got great pixel art graphics and an interesting 'bomb' gimmick which one doesn't even encounter in modern dating simulation games. Will the player be able to win over his childhood friend, the beautiful Shiori?

A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android

Emory is an 18 year old noble of Sharan, a wealthy kingdom made even wealthier by Emory's father, an entrepreneur and prolific business man who is the king's aid in finances.

Red Embrace (BL Visual Novel) Mac OS

You re welcome, I was confused to so I understand :)

I'm having problems writing my name on android! ://

Hi! The newer versions of android seem to have a problem with text input but it is solvable (from what I've tested and testers have seen) by backing in and out of the input menu (i.e., closing the keyboard and reopening it by pressing where to input the text).

If this doesn't work for you then don't worry, you can press enter and the name will default to Emory so you can continue playing.

I just finished it.

The artstyle is good.. Sprites are nice

Giving the player option to choose gender, name and appearance of MC was good idea.

All the characters are very interesting. But I chose Lisia as romance option. She's so sweet and cute.

I found a few typos in dialoques and few coding bugs. (In example: Servant once called a mather 'lady (surname)' )

The games was good but I can't give it a high rank.
No CGs, skipping a lot of events and days, medium-quality BGs,a bit too linear plot and few other flaws..

I loved Cordelian's route! It's always so cute when two best friends fall in love. ❤

I enjoyed it, what I enjoyed most was ripping the prince out of his loveless marriage by wooing the princess, as a fellow woman, way easier. :) They're welcome. lol

how do you start playing the game because this is my first time downloading a game so how do you start the game?

Once you download the ZIP file, you need to right click -> extract the folder. Then, open the newly extracted folder and click the application inside it! Coin runner (lukas) mac os.

Just finished the demo, I really enjoyed it!! I'm definitely going for Cordelian, huge fan of childhood friend romances and having a story with all the drama potential of breaking up a royal engagement :)


Can't wait to hear some updates and play the game!

I can't install the app since there's a error message that pops up when I try to open the download and install it. I am trying to download it on Android so can you fix this?

I like this game!

I'm going for the prince. Who wouldn't, though? :)

I hope you update soon. I can't wait to play the full game.

Hey I am on mac and everytime i try to launch I get this. I really would like to play the game but I can't.

Error: After loading the script.

TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'int'

Weird! I apologize for the error and I'm looking into it- I'll reply back as soon as it's fixed!

♥ intersting game, good art, good plot. I'm waiting for more ♥

I just finished the demo and love it, i been trying to get with the best friend but i really hope this gets fully finished as soon as possible i really want to see the outcome of it. it's a great game so far

Very nice so far! The story is interesting so far. The characters are all very nice, and the art is also very well done. Is the protag supposed to have red skin? Because on my monitor, their skin seems a soft reddish. And Lisia's skin too, is purplish. Not like that's a bad thing, though! It's rather neat to look at.

I really like the clothes everyone is wearing. The protag's outfit is especially snazzy. I had a good laugh at Cordelian's sunglasses, too. Marco's outfit has a nice contrast, with the mostly black suit, the dark purple highlights and the golden cravat. I feel those colors go very well together.

Red Embrace (bl Visual Novel) Mac Os 11

The only thing I didn't like was the sound that played when I moused over save games or menu options-the BING BING noise. It was very loud, and made me jump.

Very cool game so far. It's nice seeing a court themed game with modern elements, like television and so on. It's unusual and refreshing!

I like all the characters so far - though I don't know the princess very well for now, obviously.

Bl Visual Novels Free

One thing that bothered me is that at some point the music stopped and didn't resume at all - it would have been nicer to have it all along - but then again, it's an early demo.

Loving the story so far. I can't wait to read the rest. ^_^

Hey just wanted to let you know, this little text blurb popped up during the opening storyline. Artwork is great so far though!

Wow, released only 20 minutes ago?! I've never been this early! :D Can't wait to try out the demo! When is the scheduled release date, if there is one, that is?

We don't have a projected release date just yet but the assets for the full release are about halfway done!
