About the Game

"I will show you a path to happiness."

Essence Bloom is a linear story-focused Visual Novel that is centered around the MC (the player) living in a peaceful world where he spends time with friends:

Hikari - Aka, "The Sunshine Girl," is always smiling and happy. In fact, she seems obsessed with it and wants everyone else to be as happy as she is.

Yuna - She runs the coffee shop, is number one in her class, and still finds time to take care of her younger sister, Saeko. She's bossy and blunt, but she has a gentle heart deep down.

Saeko - She is the opposite of her older sister, Yuna, in almost every way. She's clumsy, timid, and very reliant. She also seems confused most of the time and worries everyone, but she is well loved. 

Kagome - She's a well-disciplined martial arts champion who will defend anyone she cares about, no matter the sacrifice. She can also, surprisingly, be a bit bashful.

The friends spend their time in school studying, working at their local coffee shop, and doing fun activities. Everything is peaceful until things start to happen that threaten the serenity of this world...

Features: A story-rich experience with aesthetic visuals, energetic characters, and ~4 hours of dialogue. 

This game is meant for 18+ audiences. Some viewers may find the content disturbing or offensive.
