After debuting the demo for Sucker for Love: Date to Die For a few months back at PAX East 2023, DreadXP and AkaBaka have made the demo for the upcoming Lovecraftian dating sim available on Steam for your romantic pleasure. Released in conjunction with LudoNarraCon (a digital convention celebrating narrative video games), the Sucker for Love: Date to Die For demo showcases the first 20 minutes of this bizarre take on the visual novel dating genre.
An earnest love letter to Lovecraftian horror, ’90s anime, and old-school dating sims, Date to Die For seeks to recreate the most memorable and nostalgic aspects of each faithfully. It focuses on the often neglected part of Lovecraft’s stories: the tangible madmen and monsters under the effects of gods, as opposed to the eldritch gods themselves.
The follow-up to the acclaimed Sucker for Love: First Date, Sucker for Love: Date to Die For features a “Shadow over Innsmouth” spin, where new protagonist Stardust is captured by cultists while investigating the strange goings-on of her hometown, Sacramen-cho. Trapped in the murmuring, pulsating, undulating heart of the woods, her only hope for escaping the labyrinthian roots is to turn to the cultists’ strange purple spellbook. Once opened, she releases Rhok’zan, The Black Goat of the Woods!
Sucker for Love: Date to Die For is aiming to release later this summer.
