Match gems, level up, and date wizards and other supernatural beings on PC later this year
Seattle, Washington (March 12, 2025) – Indie developer Dire Kitten Games is thrilled to reveal the voice cast of Scholomatch, its upcoming dating sim. Featuring visual novel and match 3 gameplay, players will be matching gems and making love matches when this magical title releases on PC via Steam later in 2025.
The Horizon Wizarding Academy is taking enrollments and you’re the newest student! Fall deep in love and deep into the spirit realms as you learn magic, mingle with other academics, and uncover the secrets that threaten the academy’s future.
Your fellow students include a magical menagerie of otherworldly beings, including werewolves, fairies, sirens, and more. Scholomatch’s 11 main, potentially romanceable, characters each feature their own art, story, gameplay mechanics, and voice acting.
The game’s voice cast stars Jesse Inocalla (Genshin Impact, New Tales from the Borderlands, Marvel Battleworld), Sally Beaumont (Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader), Jingle Deleon (Pokémon Arceus’ Wish, Diablo IV), and a number of other brilliant vocal talents.
Dialogue decisions allow you to flirt, or get to know a character more, before you head to the match 3 board to clear gems and complete puzzles in order to score points. Clearing a round rewards you with XP which can in turn be used to unlock elemental improvements to score even more points. Plus, it impresses other students!
Though supernatural smooching is on the cards for those whose hearts desire, Scholomatch fully supports platonic connections, too. Character playthroughs can be completed in any combination of platonic and romantic, and there’s also the possibility of polyamory throughout its more than 15 hours of gameplay content.
Key Features of Scholomatch:
- Deep Spirit Realms, Deeper Relationships: Form earnest relationships with a number of supernatural beings, who have their own likes, dislikes, and carefully crafted personalities.
- Wizards, Werewolves, and More: Live vicariously through the protagonist and engage in your wildest fantasies by dating wizards, fairies, sirens, werewolves, and vampires just to name a few!
- Designed for Inclusivity: Different types of relationships are represented in the game, including same-gender matches, as well as platonic, romantic, and polyamorous relationships.
Scholomatch will be released in 2025 on PC via Steam. A playable demo is now available via the Steam page.
