KFC's cooking up a dating sim, and you can romance Colonel Sanders

Who's the clucky lady?

No, this is neither a joke nor a peek into my personal anime collection: KFC is cooking up an official dating sim in which you can romance Colonel Sanders. It is only Tuesday.

Developed by Psyop, KFC's game is called (brace yourselves): "I Love You, Colonel Sanders! A Finger Lickin' Good Dating Simulator". If you're familiar with an anime called Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma, it's basically that, but only chicken.

Players take the role of a promising student in culinary school, where the goal is to date Colonel Sanders and become his business partner. There are cooking battles, "battle battles", nine characters and "life-changing decisions". It looks like you get taught by a dog, so naturally it's fried' up my street.

There's no bonerless chicken in this kitchen.

If you still don't believe me, you can feast your eyes on the Steam store page. Although there's currently no release date, I guess you can put this on your bucket wish list. Brings a whole new meaning to finger lickin' good.
