How to Date an Entity and Stay Alive is a visual novel that challenges players to balance curiosity and survival while engaging with a mysterious, otherworldly woman. The protagonist wakes up in their room, only to find themselves face-to-face with an unsettling yet strangely alluring entity. She speaks in riddles, reacts unpredictably, and holds an interest in the protagonist that may be either affectionate or dangerous. Every decision shapes the interaction, determining whether the encounter ends in understanding, escape, or something far worse.
The game’s unique “Interest Meter” tracks how the entity responds to the player’s choices, directly affecting the progression of the story. Each response can raise or lower her interest, leading to one of ten possible endings. A well-chosen phrase might deepen the connection, while a single misstep could turn the situation into something terrifying. The entity does not play by human rules, meaning logic alone won’t guarantee survival. To uncover the truth behind her existence, players must carefully read between the lines and adapt to her unpredictable nature.
Each playthrough lasts about 15-20 minutes, but the branching paths encourage replayability. Some endings reveal more about the entity’s motives, while others abruptly cut the conversation short in unexpected ways. The tension is built through eerie dialogue, cryptic reactions, and the ever-present uncertainty of whether the protagonist is truly in control. The game blends horror with interactive storytelling, making each attempt a test of perception, intuition, and the ability to date something far beyond human comprehension.
