7 itemsAbout the Game
Step into the secretive slum town, where whispered rumors draw numerous female visitors seeking wealth and opportunities, unaware of the hidden challenges that awaits them. In this narrative-driven RPG, you play as Aid, a resourceful resident of the slums with a clandestine role as a guide. Aid's mission? To recruit and integrate these unsuspecting women using gathered information and tools procured from different sources, such as the local shops, inn, church and residents.
Navigate through the slums, leveraging Aid's intelligence and your strategic prowess. Gather crucial information from residents and acquire specialized tools from the tool shop to aid in your conquests. The key lies in deciphering the unwittingly leaked phrases from these women during conversations—words that can be skillfully used to your advantage.
Engage in intricate dialogue sequences where every word matters. Take note of vulnerabilities and desires exposed by your targets, manipulating conversations to influence their decisions. Once recruited, these women become pivotal assets: from combat personnel against enemies, to serving in the bustling inn, or integrating into the fabric of the slum’s community.
- Dialogue System: Key phrases will be highlighted during each acquisition phase in conversations. Clicking on these phrases presents options such as using procured tools and gathered information. The outcome of recruiting these women for the slum’s community depends on your assistance with Aid's ability to exploit their unwittingly revealed vulnerabilities with the right choice.
- Recruitment System: Recruits will be appearing in different roles—from being combatants for entertainment or defending against threats to working in the local inn or contributing to various community activities within the slum.
- Battle System: Assist recruits in battles against enemies and in the arena, leveraging their skills and abilities gained through battles or upgrading their weapons in the weapons shop.
- Character Scenes: Experience unique character scenes enriching the narrative and depth of interaction with the girls.
- Recollection Mode: View unlocked character scenes and revisit special moments within the game's recollection mode
