Games Like Kaichu - The Kaiju Dating Sim (2026)

Shared: Visual Novel, Multiple Endings, Short Playtime

Free, short, and deeply unsettling: DDLC wears the costume of a pastel dating sim and uses it as a weapon against you. Go in knowing nothing.

Shared: Multiple Endings

The dating-sim wrapper is bait, and MiSide knows it. What starts as idle chores with an anime girl becomes a genre-hopping psychological horror that two developers built better than most studios manage with a full team.

Shared: Multiple Endings

A 6-8 hour RPG that quietly asks whether you actually need to kill anything, then spends its entire runtime making you feel the answer either way.

Shared: tier:sub-5

Russian roulette with a 12-gauge and enough item-based mind games to make pure luck feel like a skill issue. Dirt cheap, brutally short, weirdly hard to put down.

Shared: Multiple Endings

Pastel sketchbook exteriors hiding a gut-punch story about grief, guilt, and four years of a locked bedroom door. One of the rare indie RPGs where the mechanics and the narrative are actually saying the same thing.
