Date Everything: Guide to Earning the Smog Pet Achievement

Breaking new ground in interactive storytelling, Date Everything introduces players to a romantic landscape where everyday objects become potential companions. Since its June 2025 launch, this unconventional title allows forging connections with household items, from appliances to furniture, redefining the boundaries of virtual relationships.

While optional collectibles exist within the game, pursuing them offers dedicated explorers additional incentives. Among these is the whimsical “Smog Companion” accolade, unlocked through interaction with an environmental element hidden in the game world.

Acquiring this trophy requires locating a peculiar lifeform within domestic spaces. Contrary to initial assumptions, the target isn’t a biological creature but rather a manifestation of household neglect – a sentient dust cluster.

Players must seek out a particular character named Dolly near the lounge area’s central seating. Upon multiple engagements with the sofa while using special perception-enhancing eyewear (the Dateviator), auditory cues will signal the entity’s appearance near the heating apparatus. Final interaction without visual aids completes the quirky requirement.
