Finding and dating Artt in Date Everything requires accessing the locked attic and using your Dateviators on an empty easel or frame. Artt, the work of art, is one of them. This godly fellow can be found in the attic of your home, but to access the room, you’ll need a key first.

As Dateable #17, this passionate artist brings creativity and philosophical discussions to your dating adventure, offering unique romance opportunities through art curation and deep conversations about aesthetics.

Who is Artt in Date Everything?

Artt represents the very essence of artistic expression in your home. We found Artt by using the Dateviators on the empty easel that was in the Attic. This passionate character transforms from a simple frame into a grandiose personality who sees the world through an artist’s lens. He’s simultaneously an optimist, pessimist, and nihilist – a walking contradiction that makes for fascinating conversations.

What makes Artt special among Date Everything’s 100 dateable characters is his ability to literally change your home’s appearance. Through his storyline, you’ll curate an art collection together, placing paintings throughout the house that persist even after conversations end.

Prerequisites: Unlocking the Attic

Before you can meet Artt, you must gain access to the attic. Here’s the step-by-step process:

Step 1: Navigate to the Office

Head to the office on the first floor. This is typically the room where you start the game, with your computer setup.

Step 2: Enter the Boiler Room

Go inside the connecting boiler room and look under the rug to find a secret door. The boiler room connects directly to your office – look for the door on the side wall.

Step 3: Discover the Crawlspace

Pull back the rug to reveal a hidden entrance. This leads to the crawlspace area where several dateables hide.

Step 4: Meet Keith

Enter the crawlspace, and then you’ll find the attic key on the floor. The key is actually Keith, one of Date Everything’s Dateables. Keith is Dateable #86, and he’s literally the skeleton key you need. After meeting him in the crawlspace, he’ll move to a table in the upstairs hallway.

Step 5: Access the Attic

With Keith’s permission (after completing his initial interaction), head upstairs and use the now-unlocked attic door. It’s located near the utility closet on the second floor.

Finding Artt in the Attic

Once inside the attic, locating Artt requires specific positioning:

Look Behind the Boxes: Face the frame in the back of the room behind some boxes.
Equip Your Dateviators: Make sure your special glasses are active
Target the Empty Frame: He’s the canvas at the back, behind the boxes.
Shoot Your Hearts: Shoot your hearts at it, and Artt will appear.

Pro tip: If you’re having trouble finding the exact spot, look for an empty easel or picture frame that seems out of place among the stored items.

He’s really into art and talking about art, so as long as you keep the discussions going and hang up all of his artworks, he’ll fall for you. Here’s every choice for each ending:

“Pitch me” (about his project)
“I’d love to! Sounds like fun.” (to be co-curator)

Friendship Ending

This maintains all the art appreciation while keeping things platonic.

Hate Ending

To achieve the hate ending with Artt:

Dismiss his artistic views
Refuse to display any paintings
Choose negative responses about art’s value
Mock his philosophical perspectives
Show no interest in being co-curator

Artt’s Art Collection and Placement

There are a total of four paintings, and four locations in which you can place them. Each painting has specific placement options:

Available Locations:

The fireplace, above the ship-in-a-bottle Jacques.
The fireplace, facing the piano Keyes.
The downstairs bathroom.
The wall in your bedroom.

Important: Once they are placed, it is permanent. Choose carefully, as you cannot rearrange the artwork later!

Understanding Artt’s Personality

Artt embodies several contradictory philosophies simultaneously. He’ll call himself an optimist, pessimist and nihilist, which might seem confusing at first. This complexity makes him one of the more intellectually stimulating dateables in the game.

His interests include:

Art History: From colonial maritime paintings to minimalist Japanese works
Political Commentary: He sees art as a tool for social change
Aesthetic Philosophy: Deep discussions about composition and meaning
Creative Expression: Turning your home into a living gallery

SPECS Points and Realization

Completing any ending with Artt rewards you with Smarts points toward your SPECS progression. This makes sense given his intellectual and artistic nature.

Realization Requirements

Like other dateables in Date Everything’s complex progression system, Artt can be “realized” into human form once you meet specific SPECS requirements. Based on community research, Artt requires a balanced combination of stats, with emphasis on:

High Smarts (naturally)
Moderate Charm
Some Empathy

The exact numbers vary, but expect to need at least 50+ total SPECS points before attempting realization.

Tips for Romancing Artt Successfully

Appreciate Art Genuinely: Even if you disagree with his interpretations, showing genuine interest in discussing art is key
Display Everything: Accepting all four paintings significantly improves your relationship
Engage Philosophically: Don’t just agree blindly – engage with his ideas
Visit Regularly: After completing his storyline, you may find him in other rooms, depending on how many paintings you choose to display.
Save Before Placement: Since painting locations are permanent, save before choosing

Date Everything: Artt’s Role in Home Decoration

Artt plays a unique role in Date Everything’s decoration system. Lady Memoria is the representation of all your items gathered over the year that have piled up more and more until it literally became a concept of its own. While Lady Memoria helps with memories and mementos, Artt specifically handles artistic decoration.

This dual system means your home can become quite personalized:

Artt’s paintings add color and culture
Lady Memoria’s items add personal history
Together, they transform your sterile house into a lived-in home

Common Issues and Solutions

Can’t Find the Empty Frame

Ensure you’re looking behind the storage boxes
Try different angles with your Dateviators active
The frame might blend in with the attic’s cluttered aesthetic

Dialogue Options Missing

Some choices require minimum SPECS levels
Ensure you’ve completed previous interactions fully
Check if you need to progress time between visits

Paintings Won’t Display

Confirm you selected a valid location
Ensure you completed the full dialogue sequence
Some players report needing to exit and re-enter rooms

Artt vs Other Creative Dateables
