About the Game

You play as a female freshman who has just entered a university famous for its animal science and veterinary programs. Life seems peaceful at first—classes, labs, and days spent on the farm—but soon you realize that something beneath this routine world doesn’t quite add up.

As the story unfolds, you’ll meet three unique characters, each with their own secrets, personalities, and emotional arcs. Your choices will affect how your relationships grow—and which truths are revealed.

Game Features

  • Visual Novel / Otome Romance – Experience an interactive story where your decisions shape the narrative and relationships.

  • Three Main Routes – Each character offers a distinct storyline with multiple endings.

  • Choices That Matter – Dialogue and situational decisions will influence how others see you and what fate awaits.

  • Soothing Campus Atmosphere – A blend of everyday student life, gentle humor, and emotional storytelling.

  • Original Art & Soundtrack – Hand-drawn illustrations and a relaxing BGM set the tone for this heartwarming yet mysterious tale.

Estimated playtime: 3–4 hours
