Lover Pretend - Nintendo Switch

Buy Lover Pretend for Nintendo Switch in Australia

Lover Pretend is a story-driven otome visual novel for Nintendo Switch, developed in Japan by Otomate (Idea Factory) and Design Factory, and localised for English-speaking audiences by Aksys Games. If you're after a choice-based romance game with a mystery running underneath the drama, Lover Pretend delivers an emotionally-driven, character-focused narrative built for fans of Japanese visual novels.

The story follows Chiyuki Ueda, a university student studying screenwriting who struggles to write convincing romance, until she's drawn into a film project alongside the sons of her late mother's former colleagues, all while trying to uncover the identity of her biological father. Player choices unfold through fast-paced "Pretend Time" decision sequences that shape Chiyuki's relationships and the direction of the story.

A Character-Driven Romance Mystery

Rather than a straightforward love story, Lover Pretend weaves its romance around a central mystery, Chiyuki's search for her biological father, giving each potential love interest their own connection to the truth she's chasing. It's this blend of romance and intrigue that has made the game stand out among otome titles released for Nintendo Switch.

Branching Paths & Pretend Time Events

Dialogue choices and timed "Pretend Time" events determine which of Chiyuki's relationships deepen and how the film project, and the mystery behind it, ultimately resolves. Multiple endings reward replaying the game to explore different character routes.
