What is Dinner Date?
In this single-player character study, you act as Julian Luxemburg's subconscious while he waits at home for his date. You tap the table, check the clock, eat, and drink as he voices worries about work and his personal life. The fully voiced story lasts about 25 minutes.

Players describe the narrative as interesting, but limited interaction is a recurring criticism. Some question whether there is enough to do for it to qualify as a game.
