Probably one of the most late-capitalist moves of 2019 is KFC’s Japanese-style dating simulator featuring their mascot, Colonel Sanders.
Named “I Love You, Colonel Sanders! A Finger Lickin’ Good Dating Simulator,” the game positions the player as the Colonel’s culinary school classmate.

“I Love You, Colonel Sanders!” promises us secret endings, secret recipes, cooking battles, and actual “battle battles,” as the creators said. To complete the cooking shonen anime fantasy, you have two rivals, a bubbly best friend, and a bizarre professor who happens to be a dog.
