About the Game

If your life were a story- Who, exactly, would it have been written by? 

Due to certain unforeseen circumstances, Yoshiya Isa finds himself moving from his small, backwater town at the edge of the Eastern Province, all the way to the unfamiliar metropolis at the heart of it. 

Although, having ended up lost at the very start of his first real day there, due to a series of strange and unfortunate, but seemingly random events, Isa's first impression of city life couldn't be further from positive. 

That is, until, he finds his salvation in the form of a girl wearing the exact uniform of the academy that he's transferring into. Or so he thinks- 

"...You're not from around here!" 

"Oh... Yeah, I actually am lost, so-" 

"I know! I can help you!" 

Little does Isa know that this chance meeting- this one, genuine coincidence, will completely change how the story of his life unfolds from this point onwards. 

Love, friendship, occult phenomena. In the face of supernatural entities, long forgotten secrets, and most pressingly: his potential partners' parents... Will Isa be able to untangle this web of interconnected fates and find romance in the process? 

  • Branching narrative with seven distinct routes and even more potential endings!

  • Expressive character sprites and a plethora of unique CG illustrations!
