Date Everything!

A fully voiced script gives the jokes a cadence they might not have otherwise. But a stunt cast assembled from well-known voice actors, 5 including Laura Bailey and Troy Baker, makes it all feel a little too silly

Perhaps this is what Marx meant when he talked about the commodity fetish. Date Everything is a game in which you more or less do as the title says. A mysterious benefactor grants you glasses that transform every object in your house, from the microwave to the smoke alarm, into a sort of human being. Then you get to know them and influence them to like, love or hate you. There is an overarching plot, detailing the motives of your benefactor, but you’ll spend most of your time talking to objects (and solving a few puzzles in the explorable house).
