Eros Xavier’s Love Solutions EGX Preview - Matchmatcher Turned Matchbreaker
If you see a game featuring a hot guy and a name like Eros Xavier’s Love Solutions, your mind immediately goes to dating sim, right? Well, you’d be wrong. You’ll find the complete opposite within — instead of encouraging romance to blossom, you’ll be working to cause relationship breakups worthy of a Taylor Swift song.

Despite having paired together some of the greatest power couples ever known, Eros is now cynical about romance and has opened a private business where people can hire him to destroy relationships instead of bringing them to life. He’s like us game journalists - cynical, broken, and distrustful of things we used to love. Poor guy.

For example, you’ll have to make the kitchen smell bad or ruin the dinner, but you have to figure out exactly how to accomplish that yourself without being spotted or making it all too obvious.
