1. Hatoful Boyfriend
Best Dating Sim Games On Mac Free
Perhaps the most famous in the 'what if a dating sim had animals' genre, Hatoful Boyfriend began its life as an April Fool's joke and soon gained cult status for its bizarre twists, well-crafted writing, and tongue-in-cheek skewering of romantic tropes. You play as a human girl who lives in a post-apocalyptic world where pigeons rule the planet. It feels like an unofficial fan-fiction epilogue to Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds, but with more supernatural elements and straight-up weirdness.

Unlike the pigeons in Hateful Boyfriend, many of whom treat the protagonist like a princess, your evening with the pugs in Hot Date will probably not go well. This game is set in a speed-dating environment, so you only have a few moments to impress these puppies. They're pretty hard to please.

This browser game made a little over a year ago deserves to gain a little boost now that Jurassic World is out. The aesthetic and writing of the game could easily go hand-in-hand with this unrelated love letter to Jurassic Park's raptors.

I love food: A pint of fresh strawberries could never break my heart, and a steaming pile of french fries would never stand me up. That seems to be the premise of Food Court, which takes place in a universe populated by anthropomorphic food items that, uh, eat and date other foods.

#iluJam, a month-long game jam that has just ended, includes several free, delightful, and unusual games. I've only played a few so far, such as Food Court (the previous entry on this list) and also the incredible Amity Bound, pictured above; the game revolves around a traveling circus packed with fun characters, including both humans and the occasional anthropomorphic animal, like a two-headed snake who's also the circus's chef. The watercolor art style and clever writing took me surprise, especially given that this game—along with the others—was completed in just one month!
