About the Game

Love & Sex: Second Base - Shawn's Story is a dating sim where a nerdy guy (hopefully you) gets to seduce three beautiful, difficult women, in a city that is very much alive.

 

Shawn works the counter at an electronics store. He is surrounded by gorgeous girls and gets absolutely no respect from any of them. His roommate Palla is mooching off him. Her best friend Audrey makes fun of him. His coworker Amy looks right through him. Will you help Shawn find love and dodge the pitfalls of dating life, or will he end up alone and unhappy? His life (and love life) is yours to control.

 

Three love interests

  • Palla is the roommate: a mean, spoiled fashionista who treats the apartment like her kingdom and Shawn like the help. Get under her skin and she can be yours, or you can be hers, on her Domination route, or she can learn her place on her Submission route.

  • Audrey is Palla's bratty BFF, a girl with a sharp tongue and a very long list of kinks. Get past the teasing and find out how much of it she actually wants done to her.

  • Amy is the goth at the next register, outgoing, mischievous and unimpressed. Win her over at work, at the cemetery and everywhere in between, and see how far her submissive side goes.

 

The aim of the game? To get lucky with the partner of your choice. Well, that and meeting, dating, and getting it on in as many places, situations and positions as you can imagine. Keep it casual or get serious: buy the ring, propose, start a family, or make her your slave. Stay faithful or play the field, and if you can handle all three at once, put a goth, a fashionista and a brat in the same bed. But remember, people talk, and you could end up getting caught out.

 

Build your stats, learn skills, earn money at the store or make it the fast way by taking over Danny's drug business while he is behind bars. Buy clothes, gifts and toys. Text the girls, call them, learn what they like, and take them on dates at the pub, the arcade, the amusement park, the waterpark, the kart track and more. Experience all four seasons as the girls go about their own lives, with their own schedules and moods, and fully animated sprites that react to everything you say.
