Use your dating skills to get a well-earned Massage through your gamepad controller! (Skills not included)
Players navigate a Tinder-like mobile app called "Linger" to match with a variety of eccentric characters, including an alien, a werewolf, and even a jar of mayonnaise. The core gameplay involves going on dates with these characters, selecting dialogue options in an attempt to impress them. Successful responses reward players with a "Massagy X" prompt, indicating that the connected controller will vibrate in a way that corresponds to the date's personality. The more successful the date, the more intense the resulting massage.
Reviewers highlight dates with characters like the alien Janein, the surfer ghost Papu-Aiye, and the sentient mayonnaise jar as being particularly memorable and hilarious. The writing consistently pokes fun at the absurdity of the premise, with players frequently laughing out loud at the various jokes and punchlines throughout the different date scenarios.
Players can replay each date multiple times to unlock the elusive 3-star ratings that yield the most intense massages. Furthermore, the game features various collectible items that appear in the player's room after successful dates, providing an additional incentive for completionists to experiment with different dialogue choices.
The game's defining feature is its unique integration with the player's game controller. Reviewers praise the vibration patterns, noting that they feel tailored to each character and can be genuinely relaxing, especially when applied to the neck or back. However, the game requires a compatible controller with vibration capabilities to fully experience this gameplay mechanic, and some reviewers encountered issues with certain controller models.
