How a run works
Pick a scenario
The coffee line, the dog park, trivia night, a wedding, a second date, a text thread, a first day at work, and scenes that branch on your first move.
Choose your line
Approach, open, banter, vibe check, close. Three moves each, in a new order every run. Or switch on Hard mode and play it blind.
Learn from every pick
The reaction, the interest meter and a coaching line after every move. Missed the strongest one? You see it.
Rank up
Wins earn XP and streak bonuses. Ranks unlock harder scenarios. Badges mark the milestones.

What’s new
Devlog →Our biggest update yet. Free Talk lets you type your own lines to an AI-played character and get coached on every message. Scenarios can now branch on your choices, and Hard mode hides the meter until the end. Send any run to a friend as a challenge link, take three weekly quests, check your new skill profile, or find your level in a 60-second quiz. New: six Friends and Networking scenarios, holiday events through the year starting with Halloween, 20 new Read the Signal cards, six new tips, shareable result cards, public profiles, optional reminder emails, and a Respect and Safety page. Guest runs are now kept in your browser and added to your account when you join.
Questions
Is PUA Game free?
Yes. Every scenario, the Daily Challenge, Read the Signal, Free Talk and the 30-Day Plan are free, and there is nothing to download.
Do I need an account?
No. Guests can play the Rookie scenarios marked for guests, event scenarios, friend challenges and Read the Signal. Guest runs are kept in your browser for a week, and joining adds them to your new account. A free account saves your XP, unlocks the rest as you rank up and puts you on the leaderboards.
Can I practise making friends, not just dating?
Yes. The Friends and Networking scenarios cover a first day at work, a new neighbour, a meetup, a run club, being someone's plus-one and a networking mixer.
Is this about pickup lines?
No. The game rewards reading the room, humour, warmth and respect. Canned lines, neediness and pushing past a signal cost you, the same as in real life.
Are the characters real?
No. Every character is fictional and the game is for adults. It is practice, not a script, and real people always get to say no.
How does the Daily Challenge work?
Each day one scenario is featured for everyone. Members can play it at any rank, and the first run each day earns double XP. Play on consecutive days to build a daily streak.
Can I install it on my phone?
Yes. On Android or desktop Chrome, use the Install button in the footer or the browser menu. On iPhone, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen.
