    The player:
        Alexis Alcantara is a successful strong, independent, career-driven woman. Everything in her life is going well... or so she thought. One Friday night, she logs-in to Facebook and realizes that everyone she knows is either engaged, married, or having kids. This leads into an existential crisis about the lack of love in her life and she turns to her friend for help.
          
        The game:
        The solution? Finder. The online dating app with over fifty million users. Alexis hasn't dated anyone in a while and is totally new to online dating. She has to kiss a lot of frogs and hope that one of them turns into prince charming. It's one girl versus the bachelor population which may be composed of creeps, jerks, and assholes. But one of them may also be Mr. Right. It's a big game and the stakes are high. You either get your heart broken or win by learning the rules of the game.
