Trying to find an "old" (2018?) dating sim

UPDATE: It was called Stellamore

So this has been rattling around in my brain for years now but for some reason it's been bugging me a lot for the past week or two, so I want to know if anyone knows what I'm talking about

So in mid-late 2018 I started playing The Arcana, and I had binged all the routes and was waiting for updates (at that point all three routes were attending/getting ready for the masquerade). At the same time, there was another dating sim kind of similar to the Arcana that either my bestie told me about or I found and told her about. I don't remember much of it, in part because it's been about seven years and it was like brand new I think.

Things I know and remember for sure

It was available in 2018 for iOS, and then eventually removed from the appstore itself, it's not even in my app history and that goes back all the way to 2014. It might have been available for android too as that was what my friend had.

The setting was not too dissimilar to The Arcana's? It was a fantasy world and the main city was vaguely Arabian and in the middle of a desert, with it all taking place in the royal palace.

We were a magic user and brought to the palace because of it, I believe we were brought there to do a job but we could have also been brought as a prisoner. I could also be getting characters mixed up but we were definitely magic.

The characters that had sprites were all men, I don't even think there were any women besides MC. The artstyle was very much anime ikemen but if I recall right, I think they all had darker skin. (And by darker I mean a shade or two below Crayola's tan pencil crayon, but having a predominantly and very clearly not pale/white cast was surprising at the time)

All that was out was the prologue, we weren't at the point where we could try picking out a love interest. I want to say it was either 3-5 short chapters or one awkwardly long chapter.

I remember the menus and loading screens having pastel colours and white swirly floral shapes/borders, but I only remember pink and purple being used, I think for the actual app's icon.

Things I might be misremembering

I feel like I saw a few reviews bashing on the game for trying to be like The Arcana whenever I'd check for updates

I don't think we ever got into the actual dating part before the app disappeared, but I can't confirm that because I can't remember if I had deleted the app already

MC might have been gender neutral? I don't remember there being an option to change pronouns but I can't remember if we were ever addressed as a woman or not. (You know when someone writes for gn reader/characters but you can still tell they were imaging a female character? I think those were the vibes.)

If we weren't a prisoner, one of the love interests was, and I think I remember a scene where we encounter him and get in trouble because he's dangerous

I do not remember the name of the game, the names of the characters, or the devs behind it. I don't really remember the plot but we didn't even get into the story before it vanished. I'm not expecting a full fledge or even playable game. I honestly want to know if anyone else remembers this game so I'm not going crazy.

...we’re just going to apologize for this one in advance 🥴

Here’s a rare find! A trailer for a 2012 iOS match-3 game that was released exclusively in China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan in English and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified) called Stitch! Super Chef. The gameplay is your typical match-3 game that’s been done to death that’s been run into the ground by many other mobile games, but hey, at least it featured the Mid Six-Twos!

Here’s the official description:

Ever since Reuben teased Angel for her (lack of) culinary skills, Stitch has made it his sole mission to become the ultimate sandwich chef. In doing so, he would ascend above Reuben's legendary sandwich making AND have the ability to give Angel a hands-on lesson! A win-win scenario.
