WHAT'S THE MEANING?

Dating sims, also known as romance simulation games, are video games with an aim to get into a romantic relationship with a character from the game. The basic gameplay of a dating sim is to take control of a character played in the first person to woo someone. But, dating simulators can be intense and serious depending on what you want. There are some dating sims with sexual content, while others are more of a chaste romance. 

DID YOU KNOW?

Did you know Konami’s Tokimeki Memorial popularized the dating sim game genre? Sure, it was not the first game of its kind. They even say there is a possibility that Tokimeki might have modeled itself after No Ri Ko. Whatever the case, Tokimeki Memorial became the standard of the future of dating sims. Moreover, it is also one of the pioneer of good otome games. In fact because of Tokimeki, dating sims have relatable settings and events over fantastic scenarios. The gameplay now also consists of explicit choices, from where to go or what to say based on a set of given options. Those choices determine which character becomes linked with your character romantically. And thus, the narrative follows the player's prior choices and actions. But the most important influence of Tokimeki was how its visuals changed the art in visual novels. This is after Konami started using backgrounds to represent generic locations. The characters do not inhabit those spaces, but they stand against a backdrop. Moreover, the best dating sims and dating sim apps most often take the form of visual novels, interactive text adventures with images and animations.
