WHEN LOVE BECOMES A SOURCE OF FEAR

Helping Your Boyfriend is a psychological horror visual novel that places a seemingly caring relationship at the center of a disturbing mystery. You play as a character who cannot walk because of an illness and moves in with Adrian, a wealthy doctor who appears devoted to their well-being. Their quiet routine involves spending time together and taking apart old dolls, but an unexpected encounter soon raises questions about the people around them.

If you enjoy story-driven horror with unsettling secrets and meaningful choices, start playing Helping Your Boyfriend and discover what lies beneath this relationship.

HOW TO PLAY HELPING YOUR BOYFRIEND

Your main goal is to follow the story, investigate suspicious events, and make decisions that influence how the characters' situations unfold. Instead of fighting enemies, you interact with characters, examine objects, and complete short minigames.

Choose dialogue options: Read each conversation carefully before selecting a response. Your decisions can affect character relationships and help determine which of the four endings you reach.
Complete doll-disassembly minigames: Follow the on-screen instructions to take apart dolls using interactive tools. These tasks form part of your routine with Adrian and introduce an unsettling side to the story.
Investigate your surroundings: Pay attention to objects, locked doors, photographs, and other clues. Details that seem unimportant at first may become useful as the mystery develops.
React to dangerous situations: Some scenes include quick-time events (QTEs) that require you to press the correct keys. Other sections put you under time pressure, so you must finish your objective before Adrian returns.

Save your progress before major decisions if you want to explore different story branches. Revisiting conversations and changing your responses can help you uncover more of the plot.
