About the Game

This game is a kinetic, hybrid text and visual novel multi-episodic game, set in an alternative Welcome To... Chichester timeline, and deals with complex adult topics.

As the 22nd century dawns, Japan has been under constant attack by The Council Of The Unseen.  Under a truce brokered by the Japanese government and Council leadership, twelve pupils from The Council have been sent to the Advanced Teaching Institute, situated off the coast of Japan, with the hope of building a better country.

  • KUROKO HAYASHI - Perpetually cheerful, helpful to everyone.

  • SAKURA YAMAMOTO - Daughter of the leaders of The Council.  Wealthy, somewhat socially awkward, and desperately wants friends.  More competent than she initially appears.
