This week, I’m spotlighting the upcoming resource management indie otome game, Boyfriend Dungeon, from Kitfox Games. But, I welcome all diversity and the series has expanded to include games featuring LGBTQIA rep and characters from other underrepresented groups. Video games are for everyone, so shouldn’t their stories and characters be just as diverse as the people that play them? So I created this series to celebrate games that strive to tell much more diverse stories centering on Black and Brown individuals. Players in Boyfriend Dungeon can also go on dates with NPCs in different locations. There is more of an RPG element in Boyfriend Dungeon than in Hades, allowing players more choice in how a relationship progresses.Hey Blerdy Tribe!! It’s Monday once again and I want to kick off the week with some melanin friendly games! If this is your first time here at Blerdy Otome, welcome!Įvery Monday I spotlight video games that focus on stories surrounding more diverse casts of characters-for folks like me looking for a bit more representation in their games. There is also much more time spent in dialogue conversations than in the dungeon, with players able to openly flirt with characters or outright shut down a relationship they don't want to pursue. There is a much wider range of gifts a player can craft or purchase for NPCs, and those NPCs have likes and dislikes that can make them respond positively or negatively towards a gift. Boyfriend Dungeon, on the other hand, is a much more dynamic in its relationship building.
Players give a gift, and the relationship proceeds. While this allows the player to romance certain Hades NPCs over time, that relationship track is just that, a straightforward track. Hades allows players to progress relationships with NPCs by giving them gifts of Nectar or Ambrosia. Players primarily get better through their character gaining XP and leveling up to do more damage.īoyfriend Dungeon instead places most of its focus on the relationship aspect of the game. While Boyfriend Dungeon has different weapons and spells to unlock and level, it is a much more limited selection. Boyfriend Dungeon, on the other hand, is much more simple. That's on top of utilizing keepsake items that give other bonuses, as well as leveling-up buffs from the Mirror of Night. Besides unlocking different weapons, Zagreus can collect boons from the gods over the course of a run which give him different abilities, some of which can build to interesting combos. For instance, Hades has much more in-depth combat mechanics. But each game places a different emphasis on mechanics. Both games involve unlocking weapons and abilities and building relationships with NPCs. Both involve roguelite dungeon crawling, with players progressing as far as they can in a dungeon before they die.
