After a year of bad dates, failed job applications, and dating apps that seem to attract only the worst kind of men, you've nearly given up on finding the love story you've always written about. One drunken night, you decide to write the man of your dreams into your notebook, every detail of him crafted to your desires.
The next day, he becomes a reality.
As you fall for the impossibly perfect stranger who seems to have stepped straight off your pages, the line between the love you write and who you are begins to blur. You'll wonder if fate has finally answered your prayers, or if you can truly trust the "man of your dreams" when fiction becomes your reality.
Affictionate is a slice-of-life romance visual novel about identity, friendship, and the dangerous gap between fantasy and reality. Set against a contemporary backdrop of late-night bars, motorcycle rides, and quiet apartments, the story follows a chronically single writer rediscovering themselves one choice at a time.
Step into the shoes of an aspiring writer who has spent the last year hiding from her real life. With the support (and occasional teasing) of their close-knit group of friends, you will navigate relationships with charming love interests whose pasts are more complicated than they first appear. Every choice you make shapes who you become, who you lets in, and ultimately, who you chooses for yourself.
