Ten Dates

Preparing to write a review for Ten Dates was challenging. This was primarily because it didn't feel like I was playing a game, but rather a mini-series followi

Ten Dates might be one of our favourite FMVs to date. It’s sweet, it’s fun, and it’s packed with larger-than-life characters that we had an absolute blast getting to know. One playthrough may be short, but it makes for the perfect interactive rom-com to cosy up with. If you enjoyed Five Dates, this sequel is a no-brainer: it’s bigger and better in every way.

Ten Dates provides a great insight into the possibilities that can emerge from speed dating. It does a great job covering all the emotions in the dating process and all the results. Some of the magic is lost if you are trying to uncover everything, but there’s a great story wherever you look.

Although the writing and characters aren't all great across the board, Ten Dates is a surprisingly engaging experience filled with lots of fantastic acting, plenty of content, and some tight editing.

Their games have never been outright terrible, but they have never managed to stand out more than being just novelty titles released once a ye...

They make you sweat, over-think, change your outfit multiple times and contemplate just staying in with your dog and Netflix instead. First dates are either adored or hated, and for obvious reasons – they can be absolutely terrifying! Ten Dates is your way to live vicariously through a young Londonite as they embark on a series of dates. This FMV is the sequel to the 2020 Five Dates, which focused on digital dating during Covid-19. This time, the dates take place in a speed dating arena in ...
