Ten Dates

Ten Dates is a live-action romantic comedy and the sequel to Five Dates. Misha, a London millennial looking for an in-person connection, tricks her best friend Ryan into joining her at a speed-dating event. They each meet five potential matches, and your choices shape how their dates develop.

Dating and choices

As Misha and Ryan move through branching conversations and deep-dive questions, they face ice-breaker games, awkward situations and unexpected truths. Your interactions can strengthen or weaken each relationship, while real-time relationship status tracking influences the story as you play. You can also pause your choices to interact with your community or friends, or simply take more time.

The dates

The ten potential matches have distinct personalities and stories:

• Bash: a sociable lad who enjoys sports, beer and crude jokes, with more to him than his outward image may suggest.
• Brandy: a financially successful hustler who tests your ability to win her over, with a story of becoming a trailblazer in London.
• Ty: a mysterious bad boy whose rough exterior may hide the potential for redemption.
• The activist: a guarded, passionate non-conformist with a sharp wit and interests in activism and arcane subjects.
• The nice guy: a dependable, kind date with a good job and active social life; there may be more to him than his surface charm.
• The athlete: a clean-living, driven woman working to challenge society’s slow acceptance of women’s sports.
• Lucas: a quirky, humorous coder whose interest in technology shapes his dating life.
• The PhD student: an easy-going genius with brilliance, charm and a zest for life.
• Hazel: a confident, approachable individualist whose un-curated exterior conceals a deeper story.
• Derek: an urbane, suave event host with an effortless gift for conversation.

Ryan is a young London heart-throb looking for love. He wears his emotions openly, and his words can either endear him to a date or alienate them. Misha is a witty, charming city single searching for her perfect match.
