Love Shore

Love Shore is a narrative game set in a futuristic metropolis that transforms at night. Cyborgs, old gods hidden in the criminal underground and humans striving to rise through the city all live there. You follow either Sam or Farah, two S.Humans among the 100 cyborgs created by Life.S. before the biotech company disappeared.

The city and its S.Humans

A fertility crisis reshaped the city, and Life S. Incorporated claimed it could create fully formed people from raw DNA, with their own thoughts, feelings and morality. Their minds, appearance and personalities come from their parents’ DNA, while artificial bodies give them physical form. This new generation, called S.Humans, does not age and is tough. Sam and Farah are very different, but face the same circumstances as S.Humans.

Stories and relationships

The game has four storylines for its two protagonists, alongside storylines for romanceable characters. Across eight storylines, routes weave together and can lead to more than 25 possible endings. Sam and Farah’s lives connect them with companions, contacts and enemies, and your choices shape whom you help and whom you lose.

Choices and relationships

Decisions develop three abilities through hidden role-playing mechanics. Companions also have hidden approval ratings, which shape relationships that can become challenging, platonic or romantic. Dating-sim mechanics include unlockable romantic scenes, but you can play without any romantic interactions.

The user interface changes between day and night according to the time in Love Shore, and the game includes a soundtrack.
