Once your Relation is 20 or higher with a town NPC, you can date them. You can also date the characters in your team, so long as they are not creatures. Dating is a minigame with the following rewards:

  • Increasing relationship, based on date score
  • Increasing morale, based on date score
  • Training sex skills, based on their usage during the date
  • Increasing lewdity, if you increase it during the date.
  • They give you gifts (Items), based on date score

As of patch 0.19.0.1, the NPCs that can be dated are:

Relationship benefits ( this is a draft):

  • If relation >= 80?, you can recruit the npc
  • if relation = 100, you get a special skill ( see each NPC page)
  • Discounts?
  • Training
  • Free training?
  • Free milk

Date minigame (unfinished)

strip card

This section is currently out of date, the dating minigame has been completely revamped as of v24.0.

When you start a date you get the date screen on the bottom. Your aim is to increase your date score, which appears at the top, right side, of the screen. There you can also check the time spent dating. Each action ( each card you play) is 2 minutes, and dates last around 2 hours. To raise your score, you play cards. For example , the strip card to the right. That card has 6 basic values:

  • Card color: cards can be green, red or blue. During the date, you can switch between two modes: causal and sex.
    • Green cards: can only be used in casual mode
    • Red cards: can only be used in sex mode
    • Blue cards (like strip): useable in either mode.
  • Lewdity required ( 6 for strip): you need your date to be at lewdity 6 or higher to play the card
  • Lust raised (13 for strip): when you play this card, you raise your date's lust by this value. Lust modifies your date's lewdity and determines seduction chance.
  • Score ( 4 for strip): this directly raises your date score. This is the most important number. Your aim is to play lots of cards with score values.
  • Fun raised (10 for strip): when you play the card, fun raises by this value
  • Special effects (strip has none, but they appear below the name): check the card effects section for details.

Dating screen

Date screen
  1. Help menu: explains date mechanics
  2. NPC menu: to check the NPC you are dating. The NPC's personality is important when dating them
  3. Location: you can change the date location here. This is useful mainly to switch between public and private zones. Public zones, like the tavern, make your sexual and seduction cards cost 2 more lewdity, and double lust raise.
  4. Main stats
    1. Lewdity: cards have a lewdity requirement. Basically, the more sexual the action, the higher you need this stat to use it. Lust modifies the NPC's current lewdity stat. An NPC's lewdity stat also affects their brothel value
    2. Fun: fun acts as a multiplier to your final score. It is easy to keep high. Most cards raise fun. Your starting fun depends on your relationship value with the NPC.
    3. Lust: determines seduction chance and modifies lewdity. NPCs have a base lewdity value, but if their lust is low (below 25%) it goes down by 1 point, or if lust is very low (below 10%) it is decreased to half (rounded down). If their lust is high however (75% or above), their lewdity temporarily increases by 1 and when you use a card that requires said value, the NPC's lewdity increases by 1 permanently.
    4. Date mode: your deck has casual cards (green) and seduction cards (pink), and general cards (black). If you are in casual mode, you can only play green and black. If in seduction, pink and black. You start in casual mode. To switch to sexual you need to seduce the NPC. To do so, you play a seduction card, and your chances to enter sexual mode are lust%.
  5. NPC deck: you can play cards from either the NPC deck or your deck. Playing NPC cards is generally better because they do not degrade. Whenever you play a card from your deck, it loses 1 stat ( fun, score or lust) for the duration of the date. NPC decks cannot be customized, but your deck can.
  6. Your deck:
  7. Reroll: rerolls all cards for free. You can do this as many times as they have energy. Save this for high lust sex mode. If you are not at high lust, you can simply use relax.
  8. Relax: at the cost of just 2 fun, it lets you reroll cards. If you are in sex mode, you go back to casual mode, and if your lust is above 50%, you lose 20% fun and lust, so relax is very good at low lust casual, while rerolls are mostly used at high lust sex.
  9. Location special actions: depends on the place.

Locations have events, special actions, and are either public or private.

Basic dating minigame tips

When deckbuilding, focus on raising score, and making you best cards favored and repeatable. Also make sure you have cards for different lewdity values

When playing, degradation is very important. Use the relax action, use the NPC deck, try to use your best casual score cards first a few times, then switch to sexual and use those too.
