Sucker for Love: Date to Die For

95/100

Sucker for Love: Date to Die For is a surprisingly heartfelt, wholesome dating sim between a girl from a small town and a goat from beyond the stars. The comedy takes a backseat here in favor of some very tense horror and incredibly cute romance, though there are still jokes and gags a plenty. It’s a short and sweet experience that will shock you, terrify you, and warm your heart.

Despite it not being what I expected and having a few quirks like unusually long load times (30 seconds at most at odd times), Sucker for Love: Date to Die For is an easy recommendation for anyone. It’s a genuinely heartwarming tale steeped in horror. The way it utilizes concepts familiar to Lovecraft fans and makes them its own is inspiring. It’s flirty, charming, funny, and frightful in equal parts. If Akabaka was able to make this kind of leap between the first and second entries, I can’t wait to see what they do for the third.

Sucker for Love: Date to Die For is everything it sets out to be and more, even with its few stumbles. For fans of any one of the genres or influences it honours, you are in for a smile-inducing, yum-awakening treat.

The Sucker for Love series continues to play with your expectations for its second outing, rebelling against the genre devices it also lovingly spoofs.

Sucker for Love: Date to Die For features expanded gameplay and emphasizes horror but limits routes as a result, instead focusing on providing a strongly written and unique take on love.

Sucker for Love: Date to Die For was short, a little broken, but ultimately engaging and relatable. Just like my love life.
