The best Mac games: Comedy Dating Sim Edition

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/weeks-best-mac-games-tk' title="The best Mac games: Comedy Dating Sim Edition"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/01/mac-games-january-hero.jpg)?itok=lUlsIBBW' />[/url]</p> <p class="intro">This collection of self-aware, humorous dating sims will charm you with cuteness.</p> <p>Many dating sims are available in the Mac gaming (http://www.imore.com/Mac-games) space, but few are as funny and adorable as this collection of dating sims featuring unusual prospects, from pugs to dinosaurs to sandwiches.</p> <!--break--> <h2>1. Hatoful Boyfriend</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/weeks-best-mac-games-tk' title="The best Mac games: Comedy Dating Sim Edition"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/07/hatoful-boyfriend_screenshot.png?itok=kS4WT45z' />[/url]</p> <p>Perhaps the most famous in the "what if a dating sim had animals" genre, Hatoful Boyfriend began its life as an April Fool's joke and soon gained cult status for its bizarre twists, well-crafted writing, and tongue-in-cheek skewering of romantic tropes. You play as a human girl who lives in a post-apocalyptic world where pigeons rule the planet. It feels like an unofficial fan-fiction epilogue to Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds, but with more supernatural elements and straight-up weirdness.</p> <ul><li>$9.99 - Order now (http://store.steampowered.com/app/310080/)</li> </ul><h2>2. Hot Date</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/weeks-best-mac-games-tk' title="The best Mac games: Comedy Dating Sim Edition"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/07/W41b-T.gif)?itok=zvZqZ9N3' />[/url]</p> <p>Unlike the pigeons in Hateful Boyfriend, many of whom treat the protagonist like a princess, your evening with the pugs in Hot Date will probably not go well. This game is set in a speed-dating environment, so you only have a few moments to impress these puppies. They're pretty hard to please.</p> <ul><li>Pay What You Want - Download now (http://georgebatch.itch.io/hot-date)</li> </ul><h2>3. Jurassic Heart</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/weeks-best-mac-games-tk' title="The best Mac games: Comedy Dating Sim Edition"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/07/JurassicHeart_screenshot.png?itok=HW551F7E' />[/url]</p> <p>This browser game made a little over a year ago deserves to gain a little boost now that Jurassic World is out. The aesthetic and writing of the game could easily go hand-in-hand with this unrelated love letter (http://the-toast.net/2015/04/27/if-the-velociraptor-from-jurassic-park-were-your-girlfriend/) to Jurassic Park's raptors.</p> <ul><li>Free - Download now (http://jayisgames.com/review/jurassic-heart.php)</li> </ul><h2>4. Food Court</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/weeks-best-mac-games-tk' title="The best Mac games: Comedy Dating Sim Edition"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/07/FoodCourt_screenshot.png?itok=TEXpWf2w' />[/url]</p> <p>I love food: A pint of fresh strawberries could never break my heart, and a steaming pile of french fries would never stand me up. That seems to be the premise of Food Court, which takes place in a universe populated by anthropomorphic food items that, uh, eat and date other foods.</p> <ul><li>Free - Download now (http://cakenap.itch.io/food-court)</li> </ul><h2>5. #iluJam</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/weeks-best-mac-games-tk' title="The best Mac games: Comedy Dating Sim Edition"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/07/AmityBound_screenshot.png?itok=m3dwpgWZ' />[/url]</p> <h1>iluJam, a month-long game jam that has just ended, includes several free, delightful, and unusual games. I've only played a few so far, such as Food Court (the previous entry on this list) and also the incredible Amity Bound (http://everydayfoxlife.itch.io/amity-bound), pictured above; the game revolves around a traveling circus packed with fun characters, including both humans and the occasional anthropomorphic animal, like a two-headed snake who's also the circus's chef. The watercolor art style and clever writing took me surprise, especially given that this game—along with the others—was completed in just one month!</h1> <ul><li>Free - Download now (http://itch.io/jam/ilujam/feed)</li> </ul><h2>Your favorites?</h2> <p>Which dating sims are your best picks to play on a Mac? I prefer my romance with a side of comedy, so tell me about your funniest favorites.</p> </div></div></div><br clear='all'/>
