Hooked on You: A Dead by Daylight Dating Sim is a dating sim developed by Psyop and published by Behaviour Interactive. It is a parodic game where players can date the antagonists of Dead by Daylight. The game received mixed reviews from critics.
Players arrive unexpectedly on an island inhabited by four serial killers from the video game Dead by Daylight. Players can romance any of the killers while learning their backstory. If they attempt to romance more than one killer at a time or choose dialogue options that annoy a killer, they are killed and lose the game. Minigames can also impress the killers.[1] After completing the game, players can skip through dialogue to choose different paths.[2]
