Following a handful of casual questions, the date culminates with a Dealbreaker Question to determine the outcome of the date. These destructive dates can demolish Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower, and the Taj Mahal among others. With each well-received answer, the pair of kaiju steadily destroy a popular landmark to show their affection for one another.
The answer, obviously, is to have her say yes - even if she’s never touched a weight in her life. Garuden, a giant, muscular and flexing bird, asks Gigachu if she’s into fitness. Some questions are a bit easier to navigate. I provided what I thought was a positive answer by saying, “yes, Garuden looks nice” only for him to mistake the admiration for jealousy and have the situation turn awkward. All of this is needed to make an educated guess on how best to tailor your answers to each partner.Įven with all this information at hand, it still isn’t easy to answer correctly. Players can also make some observational assumptions based on how each kaiju looks. They also give a small amount of information on each kaiju, which could hint towards their personalities. None of the kaiju speak, so you rely on the news anchors who are somewhat familiar with kaiju communication to provide the questions and answers. This is where the game starts to get a little tricky. To answer, players choose one of three icons which appear as speech bubbles over Gigachu’s head: a thumbs up, a thumbs down, or a neutral expression. These questions can be small, ice-breaker questions to start - “Does Gigachu think Garuden looks nice?” - and progress to more loaded questions during later dates.

The world map, where you choose which Kaiju to start dating. Other potential dates include (but are not limited to) a volcano woman, a giant moth made of leaves, and a mushroom… thing. In my first playthrough I chose to pursue Garuden, a large, red bird-like kaiju located in Africa. From satellite footage, players move Gigachu around the world map and choose any of the six available kaiju to start dating. Reporting on Gigachu as she emerges from the ocean, they reveal that numerous kaiju have appeared all over the world and are looking for love. The game’s general story is told through news bulletins by co-anchors Brevity Ormes and Lucky Cole. I went with she/her, but other options included ze/zir, ae/aer, and the very on-theme chu/chu. Through dates and destruction, Gigachu’s compatibility with each suitor is put to the test, ending with either a happily ever after or a passionless jilt.īefore it all kicks off, players get to choose Gigachu’s pronouns from an extensive selection. In Kaichu, players take on the role of matchmaker between giant pink monster, Gigachu, and a variety of eligible kaiju admirers. Ponder this: how would Godzilla navigate the dating scene?
