Tasty Love
Tasty Love is a dating simulation visual novel built around a unique social distancing system. Most conversations take place through a messaging app, leaving the identity of your conversation partners a mystery. The story follows a junior high school student navigating relationships during school closures, invited to join a Netcord—a parody of Discord—by a teacher. Among a group of new acquaintances, some show strong interest, leading you to choose one for a date, even without meeting them in person. The game explores what love truly consists of: physical appearance, emotional connection, or simply instinctive behavior. You’ll meet characters like Kim, a rising beauty influencer who’s not very social; Na, a 5-year veteran boxer described as a bit insane; and Young Meeseeks, the owner of a café called “Nouvelle Vague” with an East European-Korean background. Interact with them through the mock messenger app, enjoy various mini-games that don’t overly disrupt your focus, and discover how relationships can grow even in unusual circumstances. Experience a fresh take on.
