![]() ![]() ![]() A businessman called Isaac has a seriously dysfunctional family who want to destroy him. A popstar called Seven is harangued by fans and just wants his own life. It’s not a particularly happy-clappy game, so make sure you’re in the mood. You have complete freedom to choose your character (choices of pronoun and non-binary options are welcome, alongside completely unisex clothing), and then you’re sent to Verona Beach for the summer. You’re staying with a cousin, Jesse, who seems to have entered a clandestine pact with your mother: to set you up with any willing person in the area. So, you’re blind-dating, meeting people by chance, and generally wooing multiple people at a time. You’re meant to be new to love, but you’re an absolute Casanova. You’re likely going to complete four or five floors at a time, and a couple of bosses sit in each mall. The enemies and the bosses reflect the dungeon’s themes (both are spoilers, so we’ll keep the themes schtum) and are weird riffs on everyday-ish things, like phones, gramophones, lips and confetti cannons. To beat them, you’re given a couple of attacks, a dodging roll, and the ability to use some common consumables like a latte which lets you heal, and a magazine with powerful offensive abilities, which can be configured back home at your flat through a simple crafting system.Ĭombat in Boyfriend Dungeon is pretty flat, unfortunately. Your character has a sliding, slightly out-of-control momentum, like you’re playing an ice sculpture of yourself, and the attacks lack substance. It feels like you’re hitting air, and enemies are bouncing off the resulting gusts of wind. ![]()
