A Word from the Author:

 

Hello, I’m Lao Wang, a Chinese person living in Norway. For this game, I designed a theme for each character: The Miracle of Snow, The Price of Freedom, The Witch’s Lie, and The Secret You Can’t Tell. My concept for the game is that while the gameplay is simple, each character offers a completely different experience. The inclusion of foreign beauties isn’t the selling point of the game; the core attraction of this type of game has always been the storyline. This is my strength, which is why I wrote, directed, and edited this game myself. I hope you enjoy this game and have a happy time playing it. Thank you!
