Omkar Phatak
Dating games on the Internet are quite popular today, with many sites offering them for free. If you have never heard about this concept, here is an eye opener on simulation dating.
Virtual reality, in the form of computer simulated games, is increasingly capturing our imagination. Till some years ago, virtual games were limited to be of the combat type, where you shot aliens in space, completed deadly rescue missions, or won races.
Now, game creators have expanded their horizons to include relationships and romantic pursuits, as themes for their virtual reality based games. Online dating games for guys and girls are an outgrowth of this new foray of game designers, into the romance arena.
Online role playing games have been around since some time, but today, they have become increasingly popular. Small dating games for teens are created, as flash-based animations with taglines like 'Find your true love' or 'Learn the moves'. They are fun but should not be taken seriously as the real world is quite different from the virtual one, in every way.

Red Virtual Date

Red virtual date is a free game, where you go on a date with a virtual guy or girl, of your choice. You can meet these dates at various places like the beach and university. It is aimed at teens and is quite clean, in the sense that there is no abusive language.
The objective of the game is to make conversation, by choosing the coolest questions and answers, from among the choices provided to you and winning the heart of your date. You either get rejected or hooked with him or her. If you are rejected, there is always the next date to look forward to.

Speed Dating

This is a popular game, available for free. It is aimed at adults and is a virtual replica of the speed dating rounds that occur in real life. As the game begins, virtual characters of the opposite gender, pop up in flash animation, asking questions and you have about 5 seconds to answer each one or come up with a smart retort.
You have to choose the coolest or most impressive answer from the choices. If your answers are right, you go on, or you are 'Loser'ed' out of the game. It's a fun game to play. Try it out.
People get so engrossed in virtual gaming, that they forget they have a real life, which is lot more fun. Their best relationship is with their computer. Don't let this happen to you. Going out in the real world and socializing is a better option. These games are for fun and not a substitute for reality. These games are to be played for fun and to kill time.
