Dating Love Story Games PUA Reviews

Tutorial is way too long and restrictive, holding your hand like you’re an idiot and forcing you to rush through rather than offering helpful guidance. You cannot access ANYTHING but what the tutorial wants you to until you’ve completed it, which would normally be fine, except this tutorial doesn’t even let you change settings until it’s done. There’s no option to skip it, and while I don’t normally have a problem with tutorials (especially helpful ones!), this one is agonizing to go through, and the first time I played, I literally just spammed responses for a solid two minutes, not even bothering to read responses, before it finally let me play. Two minutes of skipping dialogue before it finished. Two minutes. I tried it again and actually read the responses, and it was unreasonably long. Allow an option to skip the tutorial or make it less obnoxiously smothering. Hard to enjoy the game when the first session is nothing but the game forcing you to hurry through a routine without giving you a choice in the matter.

As with most the game is programmed to know who spends big money. If you do not spend money to level up then the game matches you against opponents with a far superior advantage to ensure you lose challenges. More 2 bit garbage. Average Joe the lowest league and you are pitted against opponents with cards in the 50’s and 60’s.. Scroll and you will see where the developers little cronies are told to lie and say it is based on the league you are in. Laughable. All that matters is the money. Be an idiot and buy fake gems and you will win every match. You don’t actually play another person in the contests. The game is programmed to know what cards you have and will ensure you play against a simulated opponent with far higher cars. Build you cards in the 30’s and you will play against a computer opponent in the 40s. Build your cards in the 40s and go against someone in the 50’s. Play for 40 years or give the developers a few grand to build your cards in the 90s and you will play cards in the 100s. No winning unless you spend BIG which you means you lose.

I like the concept of this game and it’s super fun to go on dates. But having to leveling up certain traits takes super long and stamina also takes wayyyy to long to refresh. There are almost no way to get coins (unless you pay or do offers (which I hate doing)) which is pretty crazy because the game is centered around coins. It seems like the game just wants you to do the opponent vs. mode which is boring. The ad I saw for this game made it look super fun but playing the game is really not. I don’t want to be forced into waiting days to level up one thing about my character and then wait another couple days for another trait. It’s not fun like that. Going on dates is super fun. Like super fun. But the longer you play the game the less and less dates I encountered. I don’t like pay to play games especially when it an app. I wish it was faster to level up traits (without paying). I wish the opponent vs. mode was somewhat fun. I wish coins could be gained easier without having to download apps or spend money. And I wish the game was about being a pick up artist and not a level up these traits that takes hours if not days to do.

Summary: Good design intent, poor execution. The game is boring after 2-3 weeks unless you wanna spend real money.
The game was clearly designed for guys and it was a good intent. However, the developers have made it so hard for users to enjoy the game without spending real money. I know that game developers need money to survive, but pushing to this limit is just another way to turn users down. Also, the girls appearances need to be updated. Only few girls look decent, the rest look dull. At level 15, i think i had only 1 date per week (even though i played every day). There are no mini games or fun events so you and the girls could make more chemistry bond. After spending about a month on this game and reached level 15, i think it would take me a year to start seeing fun in this game. I will delete this game for now. Hope next version will be better designed. Remember, good game with a lot of users will attract revenue without having to annoy gamers.

While the dates are interesting and the mini games are fine and all, the game feels like it moves a little too slowly. There simply isn’t much to do while you wait at higher levels.

The pvp ranking aspect is my biggest complaint. To make any progress, you either have to invest days of time just upgrading or pay in order to make progress. I have reached the point where there is a guaranteed loss for one of the two pvp options due to level disparities and on the other option, there’s not much of a chance due to the match making system. Going on a loosing streak because you’re paired with 6 opponents in a row with multiple cards 6 or more levels above your highest level card is not very encouraging. Winning also doesn’t feel rewarding as the win and loss rewards and penalties are so small that you could easily spend over an hour without making any progress. Give the players more control over what they can use or find some way to allow players more variation. Or best of all please fix the match making system, facing level 20 cards with level 4s is not gonna get anyone anywhere.

For the first few days, the game is a lot of fun. You have tons of dates, actions, and things to do. Then you hit the energy and coin walls.

Simply put, you need increasing amounts to do anything and the game recharge level for both is absurdly low. For example, I was given a mission of buying five boating clothes, which cost roughly $4000 all told. At my currently level, my character has a salary of $200 per 24 hours. What? Come on.

So my only options are to wait three weeks to complete a single task, to purchase coins with real money (and coins are expensive) or do offers (which mostly either don’t work, like the surveys that get you to do the survey and then say “sorry not eligible for this survey, despite you just doing the survey”, or involve buying things). This isn’t pay to win, its pay to play and that’s not acceptable in 2020. I don’t understand the logic of the developers at all, but as it is, it’s fun for a few days and then deletable.

This is an interesting game because it’s like a story-teller/dress-up game for guys, which I can say the gaming market lacks. Guys can finally play a game like “Episodes” without feeling the need to hide it somewhere in a folder. The dates are fun to go on and the quizzes make you play the game to excel at them. The clothing is cool, although it can be updated or you could add more options.

The problem with this game is the fact that it’s a cash grab. Sure I understand everybody has to make their money but there are ways to do such a thing without ruining the game.
The whole coin system is jacked up. You have to pay to do activities to level up your cards yet your job only gives out a couple hundred coins. Leveling up jobs only adds about 50 coins per level but god knows how many coins it took to level up.
You have to pay for everything so that only leaves you one option; pay for coins or gems. That right there is where you lose most people’s interest and Y’all know that.

The trick to these pay-to-play games is to make the user want to spend coins, not force them because at the end of the day, it’s just an app you could delete off your phone. You’re not really forcing anyone to spend money, you’re forcing them to delete the game.
Make the game where you can successfully play the game without having to spend real life money and watch how users gradually want to spend real money on a good game.

I’ve been enjoying the game so far, after about an hour or two of playing. However, I’ve noticed a persistent glitch that truly makes the game impossible. While on dates, there’s a bug where the dialogue box never shows up no matter how long I wait. I’m forced to abort the date and restart, however it’s a waste of all my energy. I just wasted 75 energy on one date because of this issue and am currently waiting for my energy to fill up just to do anything. I love the battle system, but I’m interested in progression right now and especially dislike that I have to waste diamonds simply because of a bug. I’m surprised no other reviews have mentioned this issue yet, as it’s made the dates nearly impossible. I find myself praying on each date that the dialogue doesn’t crash, instead of simply enjoying one of the best aspects of the game.

This game is fun, and has a lot of potential. But the few downsides of this game is,
1: It takes a long time to regain energy. It takes 5 minutes for 1 energy, and to fill up your meter, would take half a day, unless you level up, which you get a full meter. For example going to the gym takes energy, which is understandable, it’s part of the game but you have to click on it so many times to level up. Which eventually drains your energy, I mean, put ads on there to watch to regain energy. Also, every time you level up, you don’t get a bigger storage capacity for energy.

2: You can’t level up multiple activities at the same time, so you have to wait for one to finish, before starting another, which is extremely frustrating. And time consuming.

the game is fun i like the game a lot it keeps me entertained n i would like to play it a lot more n longer but the only problem is one u lose energy kind of fast n the energy refill takes forever. You get one energy every 5 minutes when the max energy is 150. i don’t know maybe increase the amount of energy we get, decrease the time so it won’t take as long, or increase the total energy so we can play longer. two there’s like really no way to get money except your job maybe n that’s every 24 hours. it takes a lot to get xp because u have to constantly do activities which once again takes away from your energy which than takes awhile for it to fully refill or to get a good number to u can do more activities in the game. the opponent vs. mode is a little fun i guess but there should be like more of a challenge so like there’s a mode to get more xp n more trophies because whether u win or lose u don’t get a lot of xp n when u win u don’t get a lot of trophies neither. don’t know if u all would read this but if u do it would be nice. i really do like the game n the concept n it’s really fun i recommend people to download n play it. but those are all the problems i would say i guess if u put it that way.

The game is great, and offers a lot to do. However, it’s clearly made to force the player to spend money. You are forced to spend the in game currency much faster than it can be made, and the same goes for the energy. Without spending money, it would take weeks to level up because it takes that long just to build up in game currency enough to do activities that level the player up.

As for gaining experience, that also needs a major boost. When you have to get several thousand xp to level up at higher levels, and the most you can get at a time is 60, it is a slow process. And then it gets slower when those activities require in game money and quite a bit of energy at the same time.

If the developers fix the problem with balancing the game to make it playable without spending real money every day just to progress, then it would be a near-perfect game.

Just wish some stuff wasn’t so much; for instance you barely make any coins. And if you want to progress you need to spend a lot of money for diamonds or whatever it is. You don’t gain much XP, you will barely see any results or progression unless you’re willing to spend real money. Just wish they’d make the a game a bit easier for people, or at least more rewards. Some cards take up to 24 hours to upgrade, and if you want to quicken the process you need to pay like 600 diamonds which I think is a bit ridiculous and not very realistic. Considering $5 only gets you 500 diamonds which is useless when just one item to upgrade is that amount, unless you’re a beginner at the game. Overall, the game is awesome and has a lot of potential. Hope they keep adding more stuff and rewards

I’m giving this 4 stars, debated on 3, but I love the concept of this game and it’s very fun to play, I have put money into this game and I’m at a stand still, there’s no date options, a fan story or high school crush hasn’t popped up in a while, I’m sadden that I’ve put money and time into this game and I’m not really getting thing in return, I’m stuck trying to level up to hopefully get another option to date because it’s not even giving me the option to unlock them anymore with diamonds, I was concerned at first because one by one it stopped giving me that option and I’ve seen people with higher levels of those “cards”, I don’t know what to do, or how to unlock more dates. If that was clearly stated and they did pop more and the energy slightly refilled faster I would give this 5 stars automatically.

I love this game I’ve been playing for years! My only thing I’d like to see change or added is certain girlfriend options. You have done great with taking event dates and making them girlfriends but what about Kiri and Arianna (or Adrianna) from the Dan story? I would like to see a continuation of their stories since you end Dans saga off with one of them and a girl I’d like to see a redemption story is Paloma or whoever the Stalker redhead (orange head whichever) was because Although she was crazy lol she could’ve had a story where she sought therapy and wanted to try again with our character. Outside of those I love the game and enjoy how’s its grown. I don’t think the texting stories were bad I just think after we completed them it would’ve unlocked a whole new girlfriend option and story

I really like this game, it’s different and interesting and I like how each girl has different traits and personalities and isn’t stereotyped.
But my problem with this game is that there aren’t enough challenges, for example I’d have no more than 2-3 challenges and they’re all about leveling up either leveling up in game or leveling up cards or trophies. I wish there were more date challenges at least 2 or 3 times a day. It’s been 2 days and I still haven’t got any date challenges, the only 2 challenges I have right now is leveling up and upgrading to a better paying job and I can’t do that because better jobs are still locked, and I can’t unlock them without leveling up. Mini games and 5 energy dates can’t help with XP because the XP is not nearly enough to help level up unless I keep playing minigames every 10 mins for a week. I still have 2000 XP points to go, so I’d appreciate if you add more challenges.
I do like this game and It would also be cool if it had a female version.

I’ll say this I like that it’s a low maintenance game but I feel like the tasks outweighs the reward. The task ask us to spend a lot of coin and after completing the task we get less coin back than we spent and because we need coins to level up in task when I run out. I may not be able to play for more than a week cause the money I make from work is so little after rent and car note. I think if I’m serving drinks at the pub I should be getting paid for that and not spend coins to serve drinks. Those links to get free coins didn’t work and it’s a never ending cycle of clicks but again no rewards for coins after completing a questionnaire

I want to say, going back to this game makes me feel that it really is worth playing after all, pretty much. I liked dating girlfriends and I liked playing the PvP challenges. I also like that you can get bonus dates after completing a quest. I guess my only few requests, if viable, is that we could get more girlfriends and storylines, as well as new activities or hobbies to explore (say if you want to try painting pictures, cooking recipes, or reading books). Sure I like the gym, bar, and art studio where I can work out, make drinks for people, and sing or dance, but I feel like there could be more options to choose from. And I feel like with that, there could be more girlfriends who are interested in those kinds of hobbies, as well as new storylines to tell. Don’t get me wrong, I like the game already, but I feel like there can be more potential somewhere along the way…

The dates itself is amazing, the scenes and interactions are all very well done. But the problem is the process of the game, it literally takes too long for another date, and in order get another date or interaction, you’ll have to grind too hard (I guess that’s how they make you buy gems) and the grind is boring, the mini games from the gym to the pub and spas and stuff is too bland and it’s just not interesting. The PvP only gives you 50 XP per day and you’re always matched up with some one that has cards way better than you. Moreover, the missions are to hard to get to, once I hit like lvl 10, the next mission is hit lvl 13 and that takes forever, I mean forever and the other mission is to get a better job which unlocks on lvl 12. This idea of the game is great, but like the process is just too tough and too long and it just looks to me like they’re forcing you to buy gems

This game was a pleasant surprise. It can go a bit slowly at times... trying to build up the energy and coins in order to progress, but all in all it’s a lot of fun. The date challenges are certainly the best - it’s fun just trying to do and say the right things when making a first impression- just like real life.

I would like it to be a bit more clear how to earn additional dates. The first follow up or two seem to come quickly but then you seem to get stuck. It would be helpful to have some idea about how to unlock additional dates, without spending gems or waiting 7 days. Also, spending gems to make certain choices seems a bit cheesy. I’d rather have to work out which choices are best without the lure of spending gems to get them (maybe if the choices were tied to something expensive or extravagant, it might make some sense, but spending gems just to say the right thing seems odd).

The game wont allow me to link to facebook which is bummer. Any time i try it tells me that i “don't meet the requirements or age country or other criteria” which makes no sense what so ever. Now on to the game! Very fun many things to do i am currently level 9 i believe so what i say foes by my experience in the game so far but perhaps maybe put more into what you can do with the job and not just a set amount of money and thats it.. maybe make each different job have its own benefits or even each individual job has its own little mini game you can do up to 3 times a day and maybe receive a little more then do now after completing them each day. The game is also very fun how ever again you could definitely do more mini games with the everyday stuff in it such as a little guitar hero little mini game for the music skill and etc. The dates i feel like need to be a bigger thing with more action then what you maybe when u succeed you get a change of scenery while on the same date and can lean into more stuff before it cuts out of the date before stuff gets too kinky. Also its annoying that my date is always by random when i want to go on a date with a certain girl!!
