General Information

**Lovelink** is a mobile game designed and released by Ludia Inc. Launched on September 09, 2020, *Lovelink* is a virtual dating simulation that lets the player match with exciting characters and navigate thrilling storylines. With over 75 characters to match with and new ones added weekly, players will always find that special someone to spark up their lives.

The app requests players to be 16+, and is rated M (Mature 17+) in Google Play and 17+ in the Apple (iOS) Store. As such, pictures on this site may be NSFW (not safe for work) and viewers are advised to err on the side of caution.

The **Lovelink** app is a spin-off / continuation of the app **What's Your Story**, which is also released by Ludia Inc. In **What's Your Story**, besides *Lovelink*, the app contains stories based on the television and movie series *Riverdale High*, *Charmed*, *Ghostbusters*, *Beverly Hills 90210*, *Scream*, *Divergent*, and *Project Runway*. Due to the expansion of the aforementioned stories, it appears *Lovelink* may no longer be updated on **What's Your Story** and only updated on the newer app. Also, **What's Your Story** is not available in the iTunes and Google Play stores at least in the USA and Germany, and Ludia's official Facebook and Twitter accounts for **What's Your Story** have not been updated since December 2019.

**Lovelink** has been renamed to **Lovelink - Chapters of Love** on or around October 16, 2020, and can be found by its new title in the Google Play and iTunes stores. On or around December 1, 2021, JamCity became listed alongside Ludia as the producer of the game.

## Story

You are one of the users of Lovelink, a dating app. You can swipe left (x) to decline a match or swipe right (❤) to accept a match. You can also view more information on the potential match by clicking on the red information (i) icon. However, a match also must "swipe right" to accept you. Once they do, you have 24 hours to begin a chat with them. If 24 hours pass before you begin your chat, they can un-match you.

Matches will go "offline" at certain points in a conversation. When they return, you have 24 hours to continue your conversation with them. If 24 hours pass before you continue your conversation, they may un-match you. **Note: this has been changed with the October 6, 2020 update and they will no longer un-match you.**

Depending on your choices during texting and dates, your relationships with your matches will improve at different speeds. Emojis next to the match's name indicate the level of your relationship.

 **Level** | First

## Gameplay

The Lovelink app mimics dating apps in a text form where the player chats with matches. After a certain amount of texts, the player meets the matches for "dates". Certain actions (such as, the player can choose an emoji to respond to a match's text or the player decides to make a diamond purchase) will increase the heart / love meter. Once the meter is filled, a gift of 15 diamonds is given to the player and the meter resets. The number of diamonds increases to 20 diamonds, then 25 diamonds and so forth depending on the level of the relationship.

While players can scroll up to view past texts, very "old" texts will be deleted and players will not be able to access ones from more than a few days ago. Also, players cannot replay dates. If a player un-matches a character and later rematches with them, the story continues where the player left off; it does not restart and the character doesn't question why.

### Interests

On June 30, 2021, Lovelink introduced "interests" (such as Technology, Music, Animals). The player may pick 5 out of 30 interests to customize the profile. Having common interests with Matches will lead to better rewards.

### Matches and Counterparts

In this app, character appearances and names are pre-set and not customizable by the player. For that reason, the app gives players a choice between two or three characters (a match and counterpart(s)) to choose from. For example, Adam Johnson and Dominic Wright are two matches who are counterparts to each other; they are both photographers who share the same storyline. If the player chooses to match with Adam, the player cannot match with Dominic and vice versa.

### Unable to Match

Characters whose storylines are currently "not available" are unable to be matched. No matter how often a player swipes right (❤), a match will not be made until the app has loaded their storylines into the game.

### To Be Continued

If a match goes offline with this message (above example is Cpt. Muffin, Grace Kim, and Jonathan Hayes), it means that the player has reached the end of the available content and the story is "to be continued". A player who reaches this point of the story cannot unmatch the character. The character becomes grayed-out on the player's contact/text list and only premium photos are allowed to be viewed and are available to be purchased.

### Found Love

When a match states that he/she/they have found love, it is assumed the love is with you (your character) and the story ends.

## Diamonds

Diamonds are in-game currency which are needed to unlock pictures, special choices, and increase intimacy. Players are given 1000 diamonds to start. Daily Rewards are 15 free diamonds every 6 hours and 6 extra free diamonds for watching an ad every 6 hours. Starting on or around August 15, 2021, the Daily Rewards include an option to earn 25 free diamonds instead of 15 if the player watches an ad. Spending diamonds helps to fill up the love / heart meter faster.

Diamonds may also be purchased at:

* 200 diamonds = $1.99 USD
* 550 diamonds = $4.99 USD
* 1150 diamonds = $9.99 USD
* 2400 diamonds = $19.99 USD
* 6250 diamonds = $49.99 USD
* 13000 diamonds = $99.99 USD

 5, 10, 120  | Blow a Kiss

## Updates

* **Blow a Kiss**: On April 17, 2021, Lovelink introduced "blow a kiss", which is essentially a nudge to continue a conversation. The first nudge is free; subsequent nudges start at 5 diamonds and increase. The feature is not available for matches who have turned "gray".
* **Text Choices +1 Selfie**: Lovelink combined a premium text choice with a selfie (unblur picture) for 180 to 330 diamonds.
* **Profile**: On February 8, 2022, Lovelink added the option to customize your look in your profile.

## App Support

It is advised that players write down or take a picture of the front loading screen (or settings) which contains the "support key". It is your unique game ID. Because the app does not feature options to link to Facebook or Gmail, you will need your support key if you need to contact Ludia about your game.
