Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Save the Date is a freeware Dating Sim with a catch: instead of winning her affection, your main goal is to save your girlfriend, Felicia, from the myriad of ways she can die horribly while you're out dating. This is done through a creative and meta system of manipulating save states and acquired knowledge that is more easily experienced than explained.The game was made in Ren'Py by Paper Dino Software and was published on May 27, 2013. It can be downloaded here.Due to the nature of this work, spoilers will abound in the tropes. It's highly recommended that you finish the game before reading on. You Have Been Warned!

A Winner Is You: Deconstructed. Later on in the game, when you and Felicia are discussing the possibility of an "end" to the game, Felicia brings up this trope, actually naming it, and asks if you'd want an end like that.

Bittersweet Ending: The only way to save Felicia is to not go on the date. She goes and finds love somewhere else, and you sit there longing for her but you realize that it's the only way for her to live.

Break the Cutie: Pretty much taken up to eleven with the many deaths of Felicia. May be averted in that none of these deaths carry over in a single playthrough.

But Thou Must!: There are quite a few choices where whatever you pick, Felicia will die, and the only point they exist is so that you can go back and tell her how to avoid death.

100% Completion: Pretty much required to "finish" the game due to its mechanics.
