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? Be careful with those choices! Fully Voiced – Hear your waifus fully express their undying love for you!

Lootgrind RPG is an ARPG dungeon crawler with idle progress, built for the way you actually play on a phone: a fight takes seconds, your town keeps working offline while you're gone, and every drop is a decision. Pick a class, clear the realm in fast hack and slash fights, and chase the one item that changes your build. CHOOSE YOUR HERO Warrior, Ranger, Mage, Rogue or Paladin. Each class hits harder with its favored weapons and trades one real strength against one real weakness — the Warrior's brutal critical damage against clumsy footwork, the Ranger's deadly aim against a thinner health pool. Spend talent points on rule-bending nodes that change how your build plays, and respec when you want a different plan. FIGHT ACROSS ELEVEN ZONES From the Bandit's Trail to the Shattered Void, each zone is a hand-painted fantasy map dotted with monsters, elites and champions. Clear zone quests for experience and gems, delve dungeons for a bigger payout, and take on five raid zones where a boss and a mini-boss guard the best loot in the game. Keep an eye out for the Hoarder, a treasure goblin that runs off with its pockets full if you don't finish it fast. A WORLD BOSS EVERY FEW DAYS A raid-style boss returns every few days with loot you can't find anywhere else. Gear up, pick your moment, and take it down. THE GAUNTLET One run, a fixed ladder of floors, and nothing between you and the next fight. Push as deep as your build can go for gold on every floor and a prize item for how far you got. Beat every raid and Chaos difficulty opens: the whole realm rescaled to a higher level band, all the way to level 75. LOOT WORTH READING Six rarities from common to Ancient, each item of gear rolled fresh — affixes, quality, elemental damage and named legendaries like Ashbringer. Legendary weapons carry a signature rule that no other weapon has. Ancient weapons are the rarest drop in the game. Drops are deliberately few and worth a look, not a stream of junk to sift. Then make them yours: • Enhance gear with ingots salvaged from gear you don't need • Reroll affixes with ore dug out of your own mine • Reroll an item's quality at the Blacksmith until it's perfect • Socket a shard for a stat you're missing • Complete epic and legendary armor sets for 2-piece and 4-piece bonuses • Fill the Library with every epic and legendary you've ever held BUILD AN IDLE TOWN THAT WORKS WHILE YOU'RE AWAY Your town is the other half of the game. The Ore Mine digs rerolling ore, the Apothecary brews potions, the Thieves' Den fences chest keys, the Inn sets something aside each day, and the Shrine and Bounty Board round it out. Spend your gold at the Trader, whose stock of uncommon-or-better gear turns over every twelve hours. Everything accrues on its own, even offline — no stamina spent, nothing to queue. Upgrade each building and come back to a fuller reservoir. PLAY IN SHORT SESSIONS Stamina paces your fighting, health regenerates over time, and potions get you back on your feet. Chests show their real drop odds before you spend a key. Daily rewards and bounties give you a reason to check in. When you hit the level cap, ascend for permanent magic find, gold find and damage bonuses, and run it again stronger. HONEST ABOUT THE REST Fights resolve in seconds — no waiting between them. Stamina regenerates on its own, and you never have to pay to keep playing. There are no leaderboards and no social feeds to keep up with. Just the loop: fight, loot, upgrade, push deeper. Free to play. Gems are never required to finish the game. Optional Premium subscription: every ad reward in one tap with no ad to watch, 20 gems a day that stack up, extra bag and stash slots to keep, and no forced ads. Renews monthly unless cancelled 24 hours before the period ends.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Love Esquire at 4.5 against Loot Grind RPG's 4.1. Love Esquire also leads on ratings volume (147 vs 15) and device support (3 vs 1). Loot Grind RPG's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Love Esquire holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Love Esquire has 147 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Love Esquire's written reviews are positive against 60% of Loot Grind RPG's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Love Esquire ships an update every 2 weeks, Loot Grind RPG every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
