The Game Show of Love is an interactive virtual dating game show that takes place live over Zoom. We are now casting for Season 2. In each episode 6 contestants get to know each other through a series of (f)unconventional games and questions. At the end of the episode, they submit secretly the name of the person they want to match with and if two people pick each other, they’ve met their match!
