My Rental Girlfriend Next

About

This visual novel casts you as a socially awkward high schooler who’s mastered the art of fake relationships through a rental service. You’ve grown comfortable with Sumire, your usual companion, but things shift when you stumble upon a glamorous rental girlfriend contest. A bold new girl named Jerry insists you train her for the competition, despite her thinking it’s just a modeling gig. As you navigate her misguided ambitions, you’re caught between helping her prepare and managing your own tangled feelings. The story unfolds through dialogue choices that shape interactions, with branching paths affecting your bond with both Sumire and Jerry. The game leans into its genre with straightforward, character-driven storytelling. Set in a slice-of-life world with light romantic undertones, it balances awkward humor and heartfelt moments. Running on Android, it offers a single-player experience with minimal combat or mechanics, focusing instead on narrative and relationships. While not impressive, it carves a niche for fans of casual dating sims with relatable, if slightly surreal, scenarios.
