Critic reviews
- 9.0Despite it not being what I expected and having a few quirks like unusually long load times (30 seconds at most at odd times), Sucker for Love: Date to Die For is an easy recommendation for anyone. It’s a genuinely heartwarming tale steeped in horror. The way it utilizes concepts familiar to Lovecraft fans and makes them its own is inspiring. It’s flirty, charming, funny, and frightful in equal parts. If Akabaka was able to make this kind of leap between the first and second entries, I can’t wait to see what they do for the third.
- Sucker for Love: Date to Die For is an interesting visual novel blend of horror and romance, but it's just a little bit lacking in a few areas.
- 7.0Sucker for Love: Date to Die For was short, a little broken, but ultimately engaging and relatable. Just like my love life.
- 8.0Sucker for Love: Date to Die For delivers a compelling blend of horror and romance through its unique gameplay mechanics and engaging story. The game's approachable design and detailed world-building create a rich, enjoyable experience, though the ease of navigation and lack of challenging puzzles may not satisfy all players looking for a more rigorous adventure.
- Sucker for Love: A Date to Die For has it all: horror, horny, humor, wholesome. Conduct a dark ritual and summon your partner to begin this unholy adventure that will keep you invested for a good 5 to 10 hours.
