Trivia

• Chapter 4 shares the same title as My Two First Loves, Chapter 23, and Untameable, Chapter 16, "Aftermath".
• At the start of Chapter 3, a warning will pop up advising player discretion due to "violent fight sequences".
• In Chapter 4, the main character tells Damien Nazario in a flashback, how the show would be a thousand times better if the contestants from America's Most Eligible fell down trap doors when they were eliminated.
• In Chapter 3, Damien, in an effort to help Dames snap out of Cecile's control, asks him if he knows where the name Dames comes from.
  • Damien reveals that it was a nickname that his sisters first came up with. They were the only ones who ever call him that.
• At the end of Chapter 5, you can see Ben Park's mural with the Pixelberry's logo included.
  • Same mural is seen again in Chapters 6 and 7.
• In Chapter 6, the main character can mention Take on Me.
• In Chapter 7, if you choose Damien for help in making your resume, he will tell you that he grew up with Starfall comics, the series Ben Park from #Lovehacks works for.
  • Later in this chapter, the main character, Nadia, Steve, and your chosen date visit The Double Tap.
  • In the same chapter, if you ask Khaan for fun facts about Matches, he will reveal that at an early stage, jetpacks were considered on the back of each Match. This leads to the main character making a reference to the song Take on Me. Nadia will say she feels cheated out of a groundbreaking meme.
• In a premium Chapter 9 scene, the writers referenced the Endless Summer series when Damien talks about "a group of friends, a mysterious island and how they come for a vacation, but end up with a lot more stuff than they bargained for."
• In Chapter 11, Wizard of Oz and 3 characters (Scarecrow, Tin Man, dog) can be mentioned.
• In Chapter 15, the main character and Nadia make another reference to America's Most Eligible: as they were busy moving around, the main character had to stop watching mid-season. Now he/she wants to catch up and Nadia tells him/her "When you see the finale, you're going to scream."
• With this book series ending in its second book instead of a trilogy, it marks it as the second time a book series has ended with two books instead of three after #LoveHacks.
  • This also means that Perfect Match is the only series with multiple books to be released in its entirety within the same year.
