About the Game

Can't concentrate on reading? Movies are getting boring? Not even happy with new anime? Try a visual novel game!
Whisper Books tactfully embeds stunning plot and artistic presentation in the simplest play. Here, you will embark on an unparalleled journey! Come and immerse in our unique story and storytelling!

To fully experience the story, players need to have leisure and mood to watch a movie. The writing style of story copywriting is in tune with the narrative rhythm of dubbing, so too much fast forward will affect the story experience. You may also watch it as a Chinese movie with English subtitles.
