Players arrive unexpectedly on an island inhabited by four serial killers from the video game Dead by Daylight. Players can romance any of the killers while learning their backstory.

The trailer revealed a cartoon art style as well as the four characters to be featured in the game: The Huntress, The Spirit, The Trapper, and The Wraith. Behaviour Interactive published Hooked on You on August 3, 2022. Reception 

Hooked on You received mixed reviews on Metacritic, a review aggregator. PC Gamer'''s Tyler Colp praised the game for its "magnetic" portrayal of the characters. He credited the writing with treating them "like real people", regardless of how "ridiculous and detached from their violent role in the multiplayer game" they were. Evan Valentine, writing for ComicBook.com, gave the game a rating of 2.5 out of 5 stars. Valentine appreciated its aesthetic and artwork, stating that it was able to successfully represent "the menace of each slasher", but felt that many of the jokes told by the game's narrators were "hit-or-miss", even for fans of Dead by Daylight. He also criticised the way the game attempted to combine genres, which, in his words, frequently caused it to suffer from "an identity crisis".GamesRadar called it "a bit tame" for lacking any nudity or erotic content to make up for what they felt were lackluster minigames. Polygon said it is "surprisingly solid", but too self-conscious about being a parody, which they found too distracting. RPGFan similarly criticized what they felt was too much of a focus of self-referential humor and said it would probably only appeal to Dead by Daylight fans. In contrast, NME said it would likely appeal to both visual novel and Dead by Daylight'' fans. References
