About the Game

Decorate book covers to match customers' tastes – or your own, if you feel like it! – but remember: your actions have consequences. Some will appreciate your creativity, while others… might not be so pleased.

Meet many unique characters, each with their own personality and preferences. Find a way to learn their secrets. Who knows, maybe you’ll make a new friend? Or, if fate favors you, a soulmate?

Engage in conversations, open new dialogue options, and shape customers' destinies – for better or worse.
