Evaluation

Love Esquire launched on October 8, 2019 and received post-launch support over the following year and a half. The developer shipped a substantial feature update (v1.1.0) on November 13, 2019, adding New Game+, trading cards, and additional DLC. A further feature update arrived on June 23, 2020, improving the New Game+ experience. On January 13, 2021, the developer released the final planned piece of content: the "Greatest Pleasure" DLC (DLC-4), which had been listed as an upcoming item in multiple prior update posts. The Winter Update post that accompanied this release also listed a few remaining platform and localization goals (Nintendo Switch port, mobile release, Portuguese localization), but these were platform/maintenance items rather than new story or game content. All four DLC items are now released, and there are no unreleased DLC entries on the store. The developer's subsequent posts — including the April 2021 announcement of their next game Perfect Gold, the June 2023 announcement of a new project called High Times, and the September–October 2024 posts about the High Times demo and Kickstarter — make clear that Yangyang Mobile has moved on to new titles. The most recent communication on this game's Steam page dates to October 2024, but those posts are about a different game entirely, posted to the studio's wider audience. No new content for Love Esquire has been announced or hinted at since the January 2021 update. The game launched as a complete narrative experience and has received all announced post-launch content.

About this game

Love Esquire is a romantic-comedy visual novel/dating sim with a touch of old-school RPG combat. In this game, you're not a famous knight, but a good-for-nothing squire who's on a quest to find man's greatest pleasure. Getting the girl won't be easy though, since most of them are waaaay out of your league!

So raise those stats, battle monsters, and unleash your full potential!

FEATURES




5 Dateable Waifus – Love Esquire's heroines are not just pretty faces! Each have their own unique ambitions, backstories, plots, and dirty little secrets for you to uncover.



Turn-based Combat – You may not be a decent squire, but you have a number of unconventional techniques to keep your needy knight alive. Taunt, cheer, heal, and loot your way to victory!



Raise Stats – Git gud and become the ideal man by increasing your strength, charisma and intelligence. These traits not only affect your combat abilities, but also your relationships.



Forge Relationships – Amp up your squirely charm by giving gifts and whispering sweet nothings to your waifu. Get those romance points high enough and they'll open up in more ways than one.



Multiple Endings – What's waiting for your squire at the end of the journey? Getting laid or dying a lonely virgin? Be careful with those choices!



Fully Voiced – Hear your waifus fully express their undying love for you!



Mature Content – Love Esquire is a bit naughty and contains themes that your parents warned you about as a kid. You won't last five minutes playing this game!
