About
A household still bruised from a tragedy it never fully talks about is where you land, playing a young woman trying to put her life back together while stuck living with her landlord and roommates. It's a text-based sandbox dressed up with illustrative images that try to match the people and places being described, not a visual novel with fixed scenes.
The story is about mending what broke: patching up relations with the people around you, finishing school, and eventually deciding who you actually want. None of that is handed to you outright, it's built through the routines of the house you live in.
Play revolves around working through daily schedules and slowly raising familiarity and desire with the people in that house, some of whom have their own quests and stages of interest that open up over time. Progress reads more than it plays, with scenes and options triggered by where you go and who you spend time with rather than any twitch action. Expect the usual mix of handjobs, oral, and vaginal encounters woven into that structure, but the game leans on its text and character writing more than spectacle.
