Virtual Girlfriends

Virtual girlfriends are now available with artificial intelligence for lifelike relationships.

You can also purchase supplementary packs with different girls and scenes for $9.
Virtual Boyfriends

Virtual Friends or Girlfriends in a Game

Although you can use Kari and Sergio as friends as well as romantic partners, there are other options. "My Virtual Girlfriend" is a game for your iPhone. As of December 2010, it costs $2.99 and is designed for lighthearted entertainment, rather than romance.
Alexandria HD is now available for the iPad. She will read your horoscope and tell you the weather for $1.99!
