Big up the love island game for what they’ve done with their boys. I played this game earlier in the year when there were only nine days, before the game got to big for my phone.
I can play it now, and I’m on like day 26 ?? And I’m absolutely speechless at the fact they’ve had openly bisexual characters, men talking about mental illness, men talking about self-hate concerning their bodies and distinctly healthy relationships that are maintained outside your character.
First Rocco with his anxiety, and I’m now talking to Gary about why he felt he needed to bulk up, so he didn’t appear weak and wrong.
I’m genuinely so proud and thankful for this, cause this reaches people deeply, even more than those that watch the actual love island show. I’ve never watched the show, but this game is so good at humanising its characters and making it feel like a found family by the end of it for both seasons. I sincerely can’t wait for season 3.
