Parody game about pizzas and love
Pizza Tower Academy - Dating Sim is an indie simulation game by LoulouVZ. This is a dating sim that parodies the subgenre, featuring the characters from Pizza-Tower. In this game, you enter the titular school and meet a wide cast of characters, with varying art styles and personalities. While it has the same premise of finding a partner, the game is filled with satire, internet humor, and references.
Designed to poke fun, Pizza Tower Academy - Dating Sim is a fun game to try. Note, however, that the game features jumpscares as well. It starkly contrasts games like Doki Doki Literature Club!
Find pizzas and partners in this dating sim
Like any game in the subgenre, Pizza Tower Academy - Dating Sim features a lot of familiar features. In this game, you play as an unnamed protagonist who goes into the titular school and meets a lot of characters. From the hit Pizza Tower game, you will find familiar faces such as Peppino Spaghetti in a Japanese student sailor uniform or Pepperman, the tomato-headed character.
As a parody, however, this game exaggerates certain features such as characters getting overly attached to you right from the start. This leads to a lot of cringey encounters that give the feeling that the game doesn’t have any solid direction. Surprisingly, the game offers multiple ending scenarios based on the decisions you made along the way, giving the game an unexpected replayability value.
Another concern with the game is its very short playthrough length. You can easily finish a run in about 10 to 15 minutes, giving you plenty of time to explore other storylines. Also, its niche content will alienate the casual players. There are tropes, jokes, and references that are deeply rooted in anime series or internet culture. Other than these minor restrictions, the game is readily playable.
A wacky dating sim experience
By poking fun at a lot of dating sim ideas, Pizza Tower Academy - Dating Sim is a fun game that you can enjoy a couple of times before getting tiresome. It is easy to play, quick to finish, and can be enjoyed in a number of ways. Granted, its lore is based on its hit predecessor and some of the references will fly over other people’s heads, but it’s definitely fun to check out.
