Dating Simulator is a free online rom-com you play on a pretend phone. You have just moved to a new city and downloaded Mooncake, a made-up dating app. Over 14 days you swipe through profiles, text your matches and go on dates: a rare-books restorer who has named the library pigeon, a physio with a sock-eating dog, a dumpling chef who judges your chilli tolerance, a muralist painting a whale on a car park, a wedding DJ with a pun for everything and an architect who has never moved a meeting. Everyone is a working adult with a job and a life.
Texts come with a typing bubble, read receipts and three replies. Answers that fit what they like fill a heart meter; a wrong vibe three times and they ghost you. Work shifts pay for dates and cost energy, so you can't do everything. On the last night you ask one person out. Will it be a yes, friends, or a fern you named Fernando?
There are 25 endings to collect, a Daily Date with the same three profiles for everyone, and no paid choices or real-time waits. All the dialogue is written by hand, and the game saves in your browser.
