![]() It is a bit difficult at first but once you get into a rhythm, it feels quite a bit like Diablo III as far as the control scheme goes. The randomly generated dungeons are filled with a variety of enemies with different attack styles that require you to think on your feet in order to stay alive. The dungeon crawler portion of Boyfriend Dungeon is equally well crafted. Each character has a rich and often sad backstory but this one cuts especially deep. Luckily, this storyline is a slow burn so if you want to ghost that character, the game won't punish you for it. This story is heartbreaking and powerful, but can be triggering for some viewers. One of the storylines that resonated most with me revolves around being stalked by an ex-partner. The relationships you build with your human/weapon hybrid suitors also help you to progress through the dungeons, adding a layer of depth to this unlikely crossover of a game. The stories that unfold as you get to know each character better are works of pure craftsmanship that you just don't get in most dating sims. Personally I thought the shopkeeper was a bit of a jerk so I broke up with him, yet he still sold me supplies. The relationships you develop with the multitude of characters feel so human: everyone is written differently, given fully fleshed out backstories and can be sidelined at any time if you don't like a particular character. The dating sim aspect of the game is incredibly well-written, LGBTQ+ inclusive and utterly endearing. ![]() Fortunately, Boyfriend Dungeon finds the perfect dating/dungeon balance into a truly enveloping experience. ![]() ![]() When games try to transcend or fuse genres, there's usually an element of this marriage that doesn't work and drags the whole game down (Like the abysmal swordplay in the forgettable Sonic and The Black Knight). This game is a supremely fun dating-sim/dungeon-crawler combo that shouldn't work but defies the odds and manages to be delightful and engaging.
