Arcadie: Second-Born and Arcadie: Cold Lands by @sofia-d-asb

This game features 3 ROs. In the first book, two love interests can be jealous of the MC, if you flirt with them both at once. The third option is secret, and in the next book, it may become available as a full route only through specific choices.

The Golden Rose by @anathemafiction

This game features 9 stunning ROs! All nine are monogamous and devoted solely to the MC. Alongside the gripping plot and incredible atmosphere, you’ll experience the loyal and exclusive love of your companions. That said, flirting with multiple characters won't go unnoticed and will be clearly reflected in the narrative.

To quote the author: ''I really can't imagine any of the ROs with anyone else but Romanus. It doesn't have to be your Romanus, but in my head, there's a Romanus for each of them.''

The Wayhaven Chronicles by @seraphinitegames

It’s a classic, so it would be a sin not to mention such a masterpiece. There are 4 ROs in this game. In the first book, you'll need to lock in one character's route, and they will remain your only LI throughout all subsequent books. There is also a separate love triangle route that has caused plenty of pain and drama for those who chose it. Character jealousy pops up in small scenes, with everyone expressing it in their own unique way.

Remnants Of The Past by @remnantsofthepast-if

There are 5 ROs in this game. At first, you can flirt with everyone at once, but you’ll have to pick one romance and lock it in during the first book. This choice will become your main route for all sequels. The situation with the mysterious RO is a bit more complicated, but that’s something you’ll have to figure out for yourself while playing.

Shepherds of Haven by @shepherds-of-haven

This game features 10 incredible ROs! All of them are monogamous, loyal to the MC, and unique. Each has their own personal preferences, so your MC’s gender is key to building a relationship. Every character boasts an extensive and engaging backstory. Subtle jealousy scenes will trigger in the text if you flirt with multiple characters.

Merry Crisis and College Tennis: Origin Story by @allieebobo

Merry Crisis features 3 ROs, while CTOS has 4 ROs. Neither game features poly routes; every RO is monogamous and stays loyal only to the MC. However, in CTOS jealousy is portrayed much more vividly in the narrative. If the MC flirts with multiple characters simultaneously, it will lead to noticeable narrative consequences.

God Cursed

There are 4 ROs and 1 mysterious RO in this game. The author’s main post specifically notes about no-poly to avoid any unnecessary questions. Each character loves MC, offering unconditional and exclusive devotion for MC and MC only.

Sanguine Sky by @sanguinesky-if

This game features 7 ROs and a unique romance mechanic. In a separate post, the author detailed an entire system involving romance points, ROs jealousy, and character interactions. That same post explicitly states that all love interests are strictly 'playersexual' and there will be no poly routes. Jealousy is portrayed vividly in the writing, with noticeable and significant consequences.

I, the Forgotten One and I, the Unbroken One by @johnlouisif

This game features 3 ROs in the first book and additional options in the sequel. Your MC's gender plays a major role in who you can romance. For now M/F and M/M routes are available.

Adoriel's Tears by @adoriels-tears-if

This game features 5 ROs, each with their own distinct personality and desires. Some will be more prone to jealousy than others. Your MC’s behavior and traits heavily influence their opinions of them.

Be aware: The author writes poly, but it's only available as extra bonus stories (paid content) and are non-canon.

Cantata

Leas: City of the Sun by @sailingshellsgames

This game features 3 ROs in the first book and additional option in the sequel. You can flirt with them throughout the story, but at certain points, you’ll have to choose the one you lean towards the most. Some routes can be locked in during the first book, or you can wait and do it in the sequel.

Throne of Ashes by @13leaguestories

This game features 5 ROs with a unique route mechanic. After the prologue, you must choose a specific path to follow. Each path is dedicated to one RO, meaning the routes don't overlap, they are completely independent standalone stories.

Crown of Exile by @ramonag-if

There are 5 ROs in this game, each with their own personality, backstory, and unique chemistry with the MC. You can flirt with all of them until you lock in one RO romance. Subtle jealousy scenes will trigger in the text if you flirt with multiple characters.

Be aware: The author is open to writing poly content, so there might be separate stories or DLCs with this feature, but nothing is set in stone yet.

The Bastard of Camelot by @llamagirl28

This game features 8 ROs. The MC can flirt with any of them and even experience their first crush. You can choose to stay together as you grow older or break up to explore other romantic paths. Each of these ROs has a monogamous route. Before a romance is locked in, characters may get jealous if the MC flirts with multiple characters at once.

Be aware: The dragon companion (RO) has a "canon love interest". Their route includes ROxNPC. Please be cautious if this makes you uncomfortable.

Samurai Of Hyuga by @samuraiofhyuga

There are 4 ROs in this game, plus 1 RO who will only become available closer to the epilogue. Your MC can flirt with everyone, explore different preferences, and even have casual flings. The ROs might show jealousy, but it won’t lock you out of other flirting options. You won’t have to officially lock in your romance until the very last book, near the finale.

Raiders of the Caravan by @leftski-if

There are 4 ROs in this game. You’re free to flirt with whoever you like at the start of the story, but ultimately, you’ll have to lock in a romance with just one character.

Apartment 502 by @apt502-if

There are 6 ROs in this game, each with their own unique storyline. Game features an RO/NPC subplot, but it's essential to that RO's route. Please be cautious if this makes you uncomfortable. There are love triangles in the game and ROs can display jealousy that is reflected in the text.

Be aware: Currently, the author has no plans for polyamory, but they aren't against such interactions, so everything is subject to change. If poly routes are added, the game will be removed from this list.

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by @doriana-gray-games

There are 4 ROs in this game. You can flirt with each of them, but be aware that they will get jealous, and this will be clearly reflected in the text. The game features love triangles and romance rivals.

Breach: The Archangel Job by @breachverse

This game features a massive roster of over 18 ROs! Not everyone is available in a single playthrough, so you'll need to explore different story paths, keeping in mind each character's gender preferences. This offers incredible replayability, but most importantly — every route is strictly monogamous. You can lock in your romance in the first game or hold out for other options in the sequel.

Honor Amongst Thieves by @leoneliterary

The Golden-Eyed Raven by @ashenwingraven
