You can do pretty much everything in the mobile version as in the complete computer game, although there aren't quite as many options given it is the free version, it's still expansive. The game lets you host parties, develop romantic relationships, and create and personalize your home.
15 Amnesia: Memories
Amnesia: Memories has a fascinating cast, and the game sports some of the most impressive aesthetics on our list. Idea Factory developed and published Amnesia: Memories, and since they're no strangers to consoles, you'll find it on platforms other than just mobile. But there's no reason not to snag it for your smartphone if that's your preference; it runs like a charm.
As you might have guessed, the heroine has amnesia. She must rely upon five strange men to piece her life back together. That sounds... dubious on paper, but the dudes are all good in their own way.

14 LongStory
LongStory is one of the few dating sims out there that is very LGBTQ+ friendly. It even allows you to choose your pronouns when you start the game. The story is set at Weasel Heights Middle School, with the romantic options including many of your friends. It has been praised for its cute story and relatable characters.
The characters are younger, since the story is set in middle school, so it's rife with awkward moments and humor. The game begins with a mystery as you learn the previous owner of your locker has disappeared. It's up to you if you want to find out what happened.

Mystic Messenger
Mystic Messenger is a Korean mobile romance game that came out in 2016. Also available in English, players take on the role of the main character who stumbles upon an app that lets them interact with the members of a group known as the RFA. You'll get to interact with the characters through chats, texts and phone calls (fully voiced in Korean) in real-time.
Chatrooms and phone calls work in real-time, which means that they will 'call' or message you throughout the day. This also means that it's possible to miss a conversation, but thankfully, the game is set over the course of a little over a week so it won't last forever.

5 Lovestruck
Lovestruck currently has 13 series that you can play through, and two short stories called "Lovestruck shorts." Lovestruck has many unique characters and is one of the most inclusive mobile romance/dating games out there. Lovestruck is different from a lot of games of the genre, as there aren't multiple endings for the character routes.
There seem to be no "chemistry checkpoints" that typically affect the kind of ending you get, which will appeal to people who want a good and straightforward romance story.
4 Choices: Stories You Play
