“I just want to hold you as we fall asleep on my bed.”
Zen messages Sarah all the time. She finds herself walking out for 10 minutes from her supervising role at a fast-food chain to offer him support when he complains about his cat allergies. He wakes Sarah up at 2am to see if she still misses him. Afterwards, she tries to fall back asleep, but hearing from him has made her too excited, so she stays up playing video games.
At the start of the game, Sarah’s crush Zen is a narcissist. He spends much of his time posting selfies to the group chat, talking about how handsome he is or showing off with text messages that say things like: “I just wanted to go for a light run but I ended up running a marathon!” But as you get to know him, another side is revealed.
Sarah’s interactions with Zen are similar to how many of us choose to communicate with our actual partners., more and more of our romantic lives are carried out in the virtual realm. We text while walking around supermarkets, we send nudes when date nights are made difficult by long working hours and we tag each other in funny memes on Instagram during the bus ride home.
Alix, 26 from Leeds, is also a fan of Mystic Messenger. Their favourite character on the game is redhead computer hacker 707, a Christian who loves junk food and sports cars. For Alix, dating sims are refreshing because you are programmed to be the object of their affection. “There are none of the anxieties about someone not replying or ghosting you because the guys on the game will always pursue you,” they say. “They are consistent with their attention in ways that humans often aren’t.
