Crossed Lines

A rival who's as charming as he is cruel makes college life complicated, and every friendship or fling you chase gets tangled up in the fallout. The tone stays earnest rather than jokey about it.

You're a student trying to hold classes, friends, and a love life together while that rivalry keeps dragging secrets into the open. Nothing about it plays as a clean campus romance; choices tip relationships one way or another, and the game expects you to live with the results.

Day to day, you're making the small decisions that dating sims run on: who to talk to, who to chase, who to push away, set against a school backdrop with the usual mix of flirting, jealousy, and slowly escalating scenes between classes. The story has been revisited and expanded more than once, with earlier chapters redone rather than left to rot.
