About the Game

Story

Mike arrives in a sunlit seaside city hoping to work his way through college, but his new job at a women’s dorm quickly becomes more than expected. As he grows close to the girls who depend on him, he’s drawn into a mix of romance, loyalty, and the city’s hidden criminal networks — where local gangs prey on vulnerable students, pushing Mike into dangerous choices that could change all their lives.

Gameplay

Real Life: Dorm Affairs is a third-person story-driven game where you bring a struggling dormitory back to life. Clean, repair, and restore abandoned rooms, welcome new female students, and decide who to help, who to trust, and who to grow closer to. Your actions shape Mike’s relationships with each of them and influence how life in the dorm will change. Throughout Early Access, the game will expand with new rooms, new students, and new storylines.
