Every now and then, a bizarre game takes the gaming community by storm. A developer brings an idea to the table that seems out of left field. That’s the best way to describe a KFC dating game that’s currently in the works. You heard it correct. KFC is making a dating simulator game that will be called I Love You, Colonel Sanders! A Finger Lickin Good Dating Simulator (checks notes and does a double take after reading that title). This is not a joke.
KFC has done everything they can as of late to stay in the spotlight. You might remember their zany commercials featuring different celebrities dressed up as the old Colonel Sanders himself. Some of them are great, but a lot of them just leave you scratching your head. It’s not easy to put into words how this game will be received. For those wondering what exactly this dating simulator will be about, there’s a description of the game on the Steam platform.
It is here where you get a good explanation of the dating simulator that clearly isn’t an ad or running joke. Let’s start off by saying the game is being developed by Psyop and has a release date of September 24, 2019. The game puts you in the role of a culinary student, and you’re attempting to date Colonel Sanders — a fellow student. Throughout the game’s run time, you’ll be forced to make some pretty hard decisions. What you do ultimately will determine if you start a budding relationship with Colonel Sanders or just a friendship.
Every choice has a consequence and the characters in this game will be affected by them. Thus, there is some real weight to everything you do in this dating simulator. The juxtaposition of serious relationship tones with KFC’s humorous brand is quite interesting to see.
In addition to trying to win over Colonel Sanders, there will be epic cooking battles. Each gives you the chance to work with KFC’s most famous ingredients. You’ll also be able to interact with 9 other characters, who you can also fall in love with depending on the choices you make.
If you’re a fan of KFC and video gaming, I Love You, Colonel Sanders! A Finger Lickin Good Dating Simulator probably is right up your alley. It’s gaining a lot of traction in the gaming community as of late, as people don’t quite know how to take it. This is brilliant marketing from KFC, which they’ve been able to do time and time again.
