Tonight someone stands up and says a name out loud. If it isn't yours, you're going home. Heart Islands is the dating reality show you don't watch — you play it. Couple up, survive the recoupling, and whatever you do: don't get caught cheating. THE RECOUPLING Every ceremony, the islanders choose out loud, one at a time, in front of everyone. Stay picked and you're safe. Get left standing and the boat is waiting. It's the moment the whole island is built around. MOMENTS WORTH SENDING Every recoupling, every betrayal, every crowning becomes a card you can save and send. The best nights on this island don't stay on it. CUPID, YOUR AI MATCHMAKER Five questions — just the ones that matter. Cupid learns the rest from how you play, and he'll tell you exactly why he paired you with someone: what you answered the same way, and where you don't agree at all. A LIVING ISLAND MAP The whole show happens on one island. See who's where in real time — photo bubbles roaming between the Villa, the Fire Pit, Ceremony Circle, Moonlit Cove, and the Watchtower. THE SHOW RUNS ALL DAY Morning couple check-ins, afternoon games, evening ceremonies, and the Late Night Slide when DMs open after dark. The show tells you where to be. You decide what happens there. MINI-GAMES WITH CONSEQUENCES - Pop or Like — snap judgments on a timer; likes can become matches - Spin the Bottle — land on someone and it's off to the breakout room - Split or Steal — loyalty test with your partner; steals go public - Selfie Splash — one hour, one selfie, three AI judges scoring live - Fire Pit — nightly questions answered by the whole cast TEMPTATION SHORE Boats come at dawn. Ten islanders get shipped to a second island — and the islands are cut off. No messages cross the water. Bombshells arrive with one job: turn heads that are already taken. Stick or twist at the reunion. AN AI CAST THAT NEVER SLEEPS Islanders with real personalities flirt, scheme, spill tea, and answer at the fire pit around the clock — the drama continues even when your friends are offline. Ready to couple up? The boats are waiting. SUBSCRIPTIONS & PURCHASES Heart Islands is free to play.

Emerald Case
Read full descriptionHide full description
You are a seasoned undercover operative. Cover story: financial auditor. Mission: the Emerald family’s private island - a flawless villa hiding dangerous secrets. Files, bugs, drones, pointed questions at dinner - one wrong word and the legend collapses. The deeper you go, the harder it is to tell where the agent ends and the woman begins - the one who might finally want a life that isn’t another assignment. In The Emerald Case you’ll get: • a visual novel with spy-thriller atmosphere; • the tension between duty and what never fits in a report; • different endings - the job, solitude, or a path with someone you dared to trust; • sharp characters: Julian, Victor, Isabella, Marcus. Can you close the case without losing the only thing that felt real?
