Hope (Julie Anne) devotes her life to her fiance Brian (Martin) and an organization they run. However, when Brian's sex video with a mystery woman surfaces online, Hope leaves him and their organization. She starts a new job as a content producer of a company that, unknown to her, moonlights as a troll factory. To prevent herself from getting cheated, she creates a "cheat sheet" as a guide for her to know every person she dates. Hope later on crosses paths with businessman Miguel (Rayver), in which she thought he's the perfect guy for her. However, as they get closer, long-kept secrets begin to unveil.{{cite web|url=https://www.philstar.com/the-freeman/cebu-entertainment/2023/07/24/2283378/the-cheating-game-gma-public-affairs-first-film-romance-drama-twist|last=Balbuena|first=Vanessa|title=‘The Cheating Game’: GMA Public Affairs’ first film is a romance drama with a twist|website=The Freeman|date=July 24, 2023|access-date=December 27, 2023}}
