About the Game

Story:

In Yukina’s Diary, you play through the diary tale of the heroine Yukina and her companions – written chapter by chapter to move generations.

Yukina returns to her castle, only to witness how her world falls apart. Yet she makes the decision not to give up. Plagued by doubt, she fights to survive in a harsh world – and to hold on to hope.

Her companions on this journey couldn’t be more different:

A knight drowning his sorrow in taverns.

An elf taught to avoid humans – yet trying not to judge them.

Together, they write history. And Yukina’s diary becomes the voice that remains.

Character introduction:

What remains is the diary.

And the question of what you’ll discover within it.
