Disclaimer: I was provided an early press copy of Date Everything for review. Opinions and screen shots are based on the PS5 digital edition (no DLC).
If I could I legitimately would date almost every one. I do not know if I would date everything but that is only because in the real world, we do not have the ability to converse with inanimate objects. We can pretend for sure. I am sure every one has at one point considered some object as their partner when they were not involved with another human. Some intimacy with a product designed for it or not. I will not state my own sexual experiences in that, but they were only that, never a true relationship, but imagine? Imagine if you could date your guitar? Or your favorite book? Or even a deck of cards… although that’d be a lot of people to date, fifty-two people of varying degrees and moods. Yeah, that’d be too much.

In the video game by Date Everything developed by Sassy Chap and published by team 17 you attempt to date at least a hundred different items though. TVs, sofas, globes, candles, food, the stairs, the bed, the computer, the vents, the toilet, the shower and even the unexpected. You do more than date though, you discover, you learn, you become friends, you become enemies, sometimes you know why and other times you might get confused just like the real world with humans.

The actual background plot that leads to you dating everything and continues on in an almost visual novel format of the dating simulator is fascinating in itself. A whole world creation of everything in a world, people, places, corporations, mystery, drama, comedy. It’s all there, and it compels you discover more and more each day that you can. There are also secrets. This isn’t your average dating simulator. You need to find your dates and its not just as simple as clicking. You need to read descriptions, touch things and try different well.. game things, making Date Everything just that, a video game. Not a dating simulator, not a visual novel, not an adventure, but all of that combined. A story game that you may have to play more than once to discover everything.

Which you definitely will want to do. While the IMDB page gives away a lot, it is not till you experience these voice actors portraying these characters in their awesome self that they truly come alive and start to also inhabit you. Do you return to someone to continue the relationship or try to find more people to date, and yes, you will have to choose.
One of the mechanics of the game that will seem frustrating and annoying but also creates the power of choice and the freedom but boundaries of choice is you can only speak to five dateable characters per day session (Monday-Sunday), be it ones you have unlocked already or ones you still have not seen. Without this and just being able to talk to anyone at any time would also make it less a simulator and just a free for all and if that’s what you want then you’re in the wrong place (always possibly, games are meant to be escape but still have rules and if you tried to free for all in the real world you’d probably get rejected non-stop; at least in Date Everything your chances are 98.7% higher of successful flirtation and maybe eventually more and isn’t that all we can ask for?)

I have dropped some of my favorite personal screen shots throughout this review that should just give you the idea of how broad the types of “people” you can date are and the type of dates as well. This game is so inclusive it makes my heart swell. The writer, the artists and everyone behind Date Everything I feel truly understand what makes someone like me tick, but also leaves things that however you tick and whatever your preferences are, you will find someone… something to love.
Date Everything is out now on Steam, Switch, PS4, PS5 and Xbox Series X.
