Eternights (Studio Sai)

This one had me at “Persona-inspired apocalyptic dating sim.” We’ve seen Eternights before, and it continues to look like an impressive mashup of visual novel dating sim and JRPG hack ‘n slash. A virus is turning people into monsters while the teens are also kinda horny. Much video game fun (hopefully) ensues. Eternights will sport monsters to fight, puzzles to solve, dungeons to explore, and characters to romance as the clock ticks down toward oblivion. True love waits, except when there are mutant zombies on the loose.
Platform: PC and PlayStation
