The protagonist, who constantly faces setbacks in life, arrives in the new city of “Queqiao Town” to take over her mother’s matchmaking agency, which is on the brink of bankruptcy. With the help of an unreliable uncle and a diverse group of staff, she attempts to reclaim the top spot in the matchmaking industry in Queqiao Town. During this journey, the protagonist will encounter five distinct and diverse female leads, each bringing a unique emotional experience to the player. How she manages her relationships with them and tries to solve their problems will determine who she ends up marrying. The choices made will decide which path leads to the altar… Reacquaint yourself with Qiaoqiao Town, which you haven’t visited in years. Sharpen your skills and discover any useful helpers or tools that could aid your matchmaking business. Don’t forget to take breaks amid the busyness! Enjoy a variety of leisure activities such as fishing, DJing, reading, drinking, and working out. While developing relationships with the five female leads, players also need to manage the operations of their matchmaking agency. This involves meeting single men and women in town, persuading them to become members of the agency, and striving to fulfill their desires for a partner by making suitable matches. A straightforward and quirky foreign girl who meets someone by chance in a work setting (CV: Abeihua) Ye Qingyu: The landlord’s only daughter, who bears the expectations of her elders—a seemingly aloof yet warm-hearted girl-next-door. (CV:ZhiMao) Neeko: A “hardcore otaku” server from the bakery next door, a seasoned gaming enthusiast. (CV:XianTaWuTong) Gu Meng: Your childhood friend, with whom you can no longer openly acknowledge your feelings due to differences in family backgrounds as you grew up. (CV:YuXi) Lin Xi: A doctor you meet through matchmaking, who is a “fearful-of-marriage” woman in her late thirties. (CV:RuoWu) Customize your own ‘blind date resume’. Show us yourself and tell about your appeal for love with up to 20 labels. Friendship or love may come right to you! Attention: please be cautious with possible SCAM. I used to be deeply moved by the emotions in many movies, TV dramas, and literary works, as if there was a shadow of myself in them. However, there are also many videos on the internet that say ‘once a day, prevent early love’. I have personally experienced several blind dates in the secular sense and have gained some insights: life is only once, and marriage should also be carefully chosen. Therefore, if you can simulate the experience of dating, meeting parents, and getting married in the game, it can also be considered as indirect experience. With this original intention, I decided to turn this process into a game after finishing the production of ‘Chinese Parents’ .
