First Kiss at a Spooky Soiree

About

First Kiss at a Spooky Soiree is a bite-sized visual novel from NomNomNami where you play Marzipan, a light witch with zero romantic experience. Set during a Halloween party, the game follows her awkward attempts to land her first kiss among a cast of quirky classmates. Dialogue choices and mini-games determine which of eight characters you end up with, with 10 possible endings to uncover. The gameplay is straightforward point-and-click storytelling, leaning into slice-of-life humor and light-hearted tension. The game stands out for its charming art and breezy tone, blending schoolyard awkwardness with magical setting details. Though short, its multiple endings encourage replaying to chase different romance routes. With a 78% positive rating on Steam from over 5,000 reviews, players praise its warmth and accessibility. As a project made for the 2016 Yuri Jam, it leans into gentle LGBTQ+ themes without overcomplicating its story. The cross-platform availability (PC, Mac, Linux, Android, and web) makes it easy to dip into this spooky, low-stakes dating sim.
