“Learn to enjoy the dance. That’s all it is- a dance. At the end of it she wants to fall over backwards with her legs open” – Krauser
Krauser released his new book, Daygame Mastery.
My review, the short version: Buy it.
The Long Version:
This is basically Mystery Method for guys who don’t like nailpolish and magic tricks and clubs. Look, Mystery Method was a seminal masterpiece, but if you’re like me you read it skeptically. You see it works but you think “I’m not fucking saying that” or “I’m not fucking wearing that” or you read “The Game” or saw “The Pickup Artist” and thought “this Mystery guy is actually pretty fucking weird”.
In short, Mystery was writing a book about how to get laid, Krauser writes about how to get laid while actually being a man. The difference is noticeable. Simply, most guys don’t like clubs and Krauser’s style of gaming will come much more naturally to most people.
So let’s go through what I personally consider the highlights of this book:
- The mystery of “how to stop a girl during the day and what the fuck do you say” is solved. After this, there is no more excuse. If you read this book and can’t approach a girl, the only thing that will be left to blame is your own fear and insecurity.
- In any good pickup the guy has to talk a lot at the beginning, but eventually the script flips and she’s doing most of the talking. Krauser is the first guy I’ve seen really break down how you balance this and lead her into talking. Sounds simple, but a hugely overlooked aspect in seduction is getting her to talk and listening to her words. There is way too much literature on DHVs and AMOGing and not nearly enough on conversing with a girl like a human, so this part of Krauser’s book is a breathe of fresh air.
-Wit made easy. Not everyone is a naturally silver-tongued casanova, but Krauser’s templates, mindsets and themes for opening, cold reads, texting, etc. will get you most of the way there. If you are an autistic looking for scripted game to fake your way into a girl’s pants, this isn’t the right book for you. Krauser gives plenty of examples, but he wants you to use your own creativity and words so that you come off normal and authentic.
-A masterful breakdown of long-game with real world examples. Most guys who have been approaching girls for a while have a few girls numbers who live in different cities or who stalled out for whatever reason. Just a read through of this chapter could end up paying huge dividends. There is one particular tactic to his texting that I was actually pissed I never discovered on my own. But I started using it immediately to great results. You know I don’t do Facebook game, but for guys doing eurotrips, it seems to be a necessity. Krauser’s playbook is better than anything out there.
- Date game. If I had to bet, I’d say most guys biggest sticking points are approach anxiety, and moving a date along towards sex. You know, it seems most guys have realized that one-night stands aren’t the apex of game but there has been a dearth of date game out there. Krauser is the first I’ve seen to break down in detail a plan to keep your date moving, both when to be patient and when to escalate things properly. If you often run out of things to say on a date, or lean on the same two or three stories, you’ll really want to pay attention here. That can be a thing of the past.
-Frame Crushing. My favorite part of the book, Krauser describes how to flip things around with really tough girls with a technique he calls Frame Crushing. I really can’t say more without giving anything away but it will play really well as a save on girls you think are lost causes.
Questions I anticipate:
This is great for guys running game in Europe, but will his style of game work in North America?
Yes. Most of the book reads like it could just as easily be a guide to daygaming North America. Besides his European girl archetypes and british accent (I read the book in Krauser’s voice), the book is field-ready for any major American city.
What is this book’s biggest flaw?
It is a book. As such, it cannot actually approach girls for you. Do not buy this book if you’re not going to approach girls. Let’s face it, this book could be the gilded word of God, but if you aren’t willing to get off your ass, walk up to a girl and say words, it will just be a paperweight for you. This may seem obvious, but really do a gut check. Make the decision now, are you a doer or a mental masturbator?
What’s with the high price tag?
Cheaper than a prostitute and pays more dividends. The seduction community is currently a value-sucking machine. Guys torrent and read tons of free material and put almost none of it into practice. If you have a file full of game ebooks and audio on your hard drive and the high price tag throws you off… you’re probably a value sucker. Nothing wrong with that, but understand that when you don’t personally invest in a product beyond a 2 minute download wait time, you are far less likely to put the product into action or even read it all the way through. Paying for a product is a first step in forcing yourself to act.
Beyond that, I always found it ridiculous just how much information guys give away for free to their potential competition. A man’s labor of blood and sweat should be given some evil capitalist compensation. Also, this is actually a textbook. Literally, it is built like your Calculus textbook but will provide you with far more pleasure.
______________
For anyone who is interested in daygaming, this book is a solid buy, and that’s really all there is to it.

(For full disclosure I have NO monetary or affiliate interest in this book and Krauser and I don’t even like each other. This post is raw opinion.)
