About Crush Crush
Crush Crush is an idle dating‑sim where you improve stats, take jobs, and give gifts to advance relationships from Frenemy to Lover. The game is free, runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and includes voiced dialogue and high‑resolution art.
Monthly themed events, Phone Flings, and a large roster of over 70 unlockable girls add variety. Optional in‑app purchases can speed progress, but all core content is accessible without spending money.
01 / THE GUIDE
Character roster
More than 70 girls are available, each with a distinct personality such as Peanut’s shy studiousness or Nova’s skate‑park edge. Dialogue totals over 150,000 words and is fully voiced by a cast of actresses.
Reaching Lover status unlocks additional high‑resolution pin‑ups, including “saucy” images, and special outfits for each character, expanding visual content as you progress.
- Focus affection on one girl at a time to see stat effects clearly.
- Collect pin‑ups after each promotion to track visual milestones.

Idle mechanics
The game uses “Time Blocks” that continue stat growth while you are away, allowing you to check in once or twice a day or let the game run unattended.
Progress is saved automatically, and the idle loop works without any required purchases; in‑app purchases are optional and only accelerate the same systems.
- Log in regularly to claim the next Time Block before it expires.
- Leave the game running after unlocking higher‑paying jobs for faster idle gains.

Jobs and stats
Unlocking and upgrading jobs provides income and promotions, which raise the stats needed to impress each girl. Different jobs affect different stats, so choosing the right one matters.
Stat upgrades directly influence date outcomes, gift effectiveness, and the speed at which you move from Frenemy to Lover.
- Match job upgrades to the stat a target girl values most.
- Balance income‑generating jobs with those that boost affection‑relevant stats.

Events and Phone Flings

Over 30 Phone Flings let you exchange text messages with characters and collect cute selfies, adding extra affection points.
- Participate in the current monthly event to obtain exclusive visual rewards.
- Complete Phone Flings early in a relationship to boost affection quickly.
