Yandere Simulator is a stealth action video game currently in development by American game developer Alex Mahan,[3][4] better known online as YandereDev.[5][6] The game centers upon an obsessively lovesick schoolgirl named Ayano Aishi, nicknamed "Yandere-chan", who has taken it upon herself to eliminate anyone she believes is attracting her senpai's attention.[7]

Story and gameplay[edit]

Yandere-chan (Ayano Aishi) with high sanity (above) and low sanity (below). Performing murder results in loss of sanity, making Yandere-chan look increasingly disturbed and unstable, with the game's graphics and background music also reflect the change.

The player controls Ayano Aishi (nicknamed Yandere-chan), an apathetic Japanese high school girl who has developed a crush on Taro Yamada, a fellow student often referred to as "Senpai".[8] Over the course of ten weeks, a different girl will fall in love with Taro, becoming a target for Ayano to eliminate. The player has the ability to kidnap, torture, poison, electrocute, matchmake, befriend, betray, and drown rivals, befriend other schoolgirls, play small mini games, access a street where the player can earn money by playing a maid cafe minigame, spend money at shops to buy different types of items, and more.[9][10][11]

Development[edit]

Yandere Simulator is developed by YandereDev, a freelance game developer identified as Alex and based in Temecula, California.[12][2] He first pitched the idea on 4chan in 2014, and after receiving positive feedback, decided to begin development.[citation needed] Fans have voiced concerns over how long development of the game has taken.[13]

In 2016, the game was added to the list of banned games by the streaming service Twitch.[8][14] In a statement made to Kotaku, YandereDev blamed "self-righteous ideologies" for the ban.[14]

On March 1, 2017, YandereDev announced a partnership with tinyBuild that would help him polish, promote, and publish the game.[13][15] On June 10, 2018, YandereDev announced that the partnership ended with the company in December 2017.[16]

Demo[edit]

In 2020, the game's first official demo was released along with Ayano's first rival, Osana Najimi.[17]

1980s Mode[edit]

A prequel mode, named "1980s mode" was released in October 2021.[1] This mode is a complete story mode that follows Ayano Aishi's mother, Ryoba Aishi, and follows the same storyline as the main story. The developer has stated that this mode was created to test the games various systems. 1980s Mode features VHS effects and a completely new soundtrack in order to differentiate it from the main story.[1]
