Mr. Love: Queen's Choice (Chinese: 恋与制作人; pinyin: Liàn yǔ zhì zuò rén; literally: Love and Producer) is a Chinese otome visual novel mobile game. It allows players to text, chat, and call the game's male love interests, while developing the player's own career as a media producer.

The game takes place in a fantasy setting, where the unnamed protagonist becomes involved with four male characters with superpowers. The game allows the player to choose which of the four characters to romantically pursue, with narrative choices throughout the game's chapters.

The game first released in Mainland China on December 14, 2017.[3] It launched on March 20, 2019, on Google Play in the United Kingdom [4] and two months later in other English-speaking territories.[5][7] It was also released in Japan as Love and Producer ~EVOL×LOVE~ (Japanese: 恋とプロデューサー ~EVOL×LOVE~, Hepburn: Koi to Purodyūsā ~EVOL×LOVE~) on July 3, 2019.[6]

An anime television series adaptation by MAPPA aired from July 15 to September 30, 2020.

On June 4, 2021, it was announced that Papergames had cut ties with voice actor Jonah Scott after he tweeted "Taiwan is a country". Scott later deleted the tweet.[8] In response, voice actors Sean Chiplock and Joe Zieja stepped down from the game.[9] On June 7, 2021, the game's social media accounts announced that the characters voiced by Scott, Chiplock, and Zieja were going to appear in the upcoming English chapters without voices; confirming all three had their voice acting removed from the game.

Gameplay

Main story

The player can read character dialogue and make choices to change the story in a visual novel format.

Phone system

The player can interact with the love interests via in-game text message apps and phone calls, as well as commenting on their online posts.

Messages and moments are unlocked when the player obtains certain karma cards, progress through the main story, and by increasing intimacy levels. Communicating with the love interests through the phone feature allows the player to increase the Intimacy level of each character.

Company system

The player runs their own production studio in the game. The player will need to hire employees, produce television shows, and deal with emergencies.

Employees are called "Experts" and each come with specific traits necessary to pass levels. Experts can be obtained by completing the storyline or in the "City News" shop.

Karma system

Karma are cards that the player obtains and uses in the main levels of the game. They have ultra-HD pictures and CG. Karma can have one of eight rankings: N, NH, R, ER, SR, SSR, SER, and SP.
