After the success of the viral Colonel Sanders’ visual novel, it seems other brands are trying to follow in its footsteps, including the horror game Dead by Daylight. In the Hooked on You dating-sim-slash-visual-novel spin-off, instead of running away, you have to romance one of four horrifying Killers: The Trapper, Spirit, Huntress, or Wraith. This guide will help you romance and eventually clear the Spirit route for the True Ending in Hooked on You dating sim.

Regarding the Spirit, you have to remember that she respects individuality and doesn’t care about social norms. Be cautious when trying to dig into her past because while she is proud of who she has become, she is also sensitive about how she came to be. She is also proud of her bloodline, so while she despises her father, don’t make light of her family tree. With that out of the way, let’s take a look at how you should proceed on the Spirit’s route.

  • Drink: “Virgin daiquiri”
  • Book to bring to a deserted island: “Dracula“

Afterward, try landing on Spirit when doing the Spin the Bottle minigame. And at dinner, do the Meat Carving minigame well. Regarding the Spin the Bottle minigame, though, it’s okay to “fail” and got the other Killers; as long as you’ve chosen the right answers before, you should be on track on the Spirit’s route.
