That dreaded time of the year has arrived when all Americans must go through the arduous process of filing their taxes. Pretty much nobody enjoys it, yet it's a regular part of being an adult. To simplify the process, many Americans utilize programs such as TurboTax and H&R Block. But what if a cute anime girl was there to guide a person through the tax filing process instead of some boring software? Well, that's exactly what the upcoming visual romance novel "Tax Heaven 3000" aims to do.

The game started to go viral earlier this week, when screenshots from the title started making the rounds on Twitter. Like many romantic visual novels, "Tax Heaven 3000" features an adorable anime girl who flirts with the protagonist and says things like "stand a little closer" and "I'm filing singly this year." You know, classic romance stuff. It's a bizarre concept for a game, but a lot of people on social media seem to be enamored with it.

Ok, video games have peaked.

There's a visual novel coming out that supposedly actually prepares your 2022 US federal tax return through romancing an anime girl.

I.... man, this is a lot. https://t.co/TR3XMMruYM pic.twitter.com/am2gk9Iodu

But as it turns out, Steam does not approve of "Tax Heaven 3000," and recently removed it from its platform. The game was previously approved on Steam and scheduled for release on April 4. But it seems Steam changed its mind about this unique tax filing game.

Although gamers will still be able to pick up "Tax Heaven 3000" on the game's official site and itch.io, removing the game from the popular, record-breaking platform will undoubtedly hurt the game's reach. And developer MSCHF, an art collective known for its pop culture riffs and social commentary, no doubt wanted to reach as many people as possible with this game. But the team behind "Tax Heaven 3000" is still unsure why the program was taken down, as Steam did not explain why it delisted the game.
