PlayStation Store is enticing gamers once more with a new freebie that’s perfect for anyone hunting an easy Platinum trophy. This one, though, might be best enjoyed solo. Developer Somequest has brought us another simple yet engaging puzzle game, dating-themed and all, aptly named Dating Stories. It cleverly blends the joys of jigsaw puzzles with a touch of digital romance. And yes, as the title hints, there’s a bit of cheekiness involved, but here at PlayStation LifeStyle, we’re all about fun, judgment-free gaming.
Dating Stories, available for both the PS5 and PS4, was quietly rolled out on Valentine’s Day. Ironically, or perhaps rather fittingly, I stumbled upon it today while browsing the ‘New Games for You’ section. Somequest has mixed in just a hint of challenge to spice things up, but rest assured, it’s a straightforward Platinum trophy quest that can be wrapped up in just 2-3 hours.
According to the game’s description, “Dating Stories combines the fun of solving jigsaw puzzles with the spicy excitement of romantic interactions with the sexiest women you can imagine.” Now, we won’t judge your preference, but playing this one alone might be a wise choice.
Somequest seems to have hit on a novel idea here, offering Dating Stories for free while making it tempting enough for a download with its intriguing premise. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that there are several paid add-ons available. These are ‘episodes’ featuring more alluring AI characters to enhance your experience.
But let’s focus on the real allure—grabbing easy Platinums is a thrill on its own, especially when they’re free. Who doesn’t love a breezy yet satisfying achievement now and then?
