LFGdating
IndependentBest for the biggest gamer-only dating pool
LFGdating is the biggest gamer-only app; free users can't initiate messages, but its annual plan is among the cheapest here.
Key facts
Owner: Independent (no parent company on record).
Free tier: LFGdating's free tier is rated Crippled; you cannot message your matches without paying.
Cost: The cheapest premium tier costs $6.25/mo in the US.
Safety: No cited data-breach incidents are on record for LFGdating.
LFGdating is the largest of the gamer-only apps, and it wears its niche openly: you list the games you play and match on them, right down to game-specific corners like Fortnite or World of Warcraft dating. If shared play is the point for you, that focus is the appeal.
It is a paid app in practice. Free users can browse and reply to premium members but cannot start a conversation, so real use means subscribing. The upside is that the annual plan is genuinely cheap next to the mainstream apps.
The annual plan is the only sensible way to pay: $75 for the year works out to about $6.25 a month, versus $15 month to month. Keep the scale in perspective, though. At roughly 600,000 members worldwide it's large only for a gamer-only app, so treat it as a supplement to a mainstream app rather than your sole option.
