The Romance Club app may be blocked in Russia. Roskomnadzor (Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technologies and Mass Communications) included it in the register of prohibited resources, without explaining the reasons.
According to rumors, the reason for the blocking was complaints from Ekaterina Mizulina, head of the Safe Internet League, about LGBT propaganda in the game.
"Romance Club" is a visual novel game from the Moldovan company Your Story Interactive. In it, players create a character, choose a plot, and choose a romantic relationship.
In the latest update, the novel "Seven Brothers" was released, where you could choose the orientation of your character.
The developers addressed the fans:
“Friends, thank you for your patience! In light of the increased attention to the Romance Club from the public and regulatory authorities of the Russian Federation, we want to assure that we are in contact with all interested parties so that our application continues to delight old and new fans with high-quality stories, as well as bright collaborations with our partners."
At the moment, it is known that two stories, “Seven Brothers” and “Ideal. Volume 2,” have been removed from the game.
