Where one can excuse the naming is in the fact that the majority of your time is spent going on dates with different dads. Whether characters like you or not depends simply on your responses to dialogue choices, which is pure visual novel gameplay rather than being of the dating sim variety. Nor do you ever need to work at odd jobs in order to pay for gifts to provide your dad of choice. You do not at any point work at raising the protagonist’s stats in order to appeal to certain fathers. No, despite being specifically called “A Dad Dating Simulator,” it’s not actually a dating sim in the traditional sense. The easiest place to start is with the name. There’s really so much to cover when discussing Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator. After a relatively short delay, Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator is finally out there and tons of people are playing it. At this point, there’s unfortunately still not too many games which happily focus on non-straight characters and relationships. Of course, there was also the matter of the LGBTQ gamer community perking up. Some of this had to do with the Game Grumps connection, as this group has a massive fan following. Folks went bonkers after the announcement (even those who had never before played a visual novel or dating sim before). Before the announcement of Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator, nobody knew that they wanted a game like this so badly.
