Element-174

A new arrival at Branchfield University finds that every conversation and decision quietly rewrites his future, and everyone else's. There are no early game-overs here, just consequences that stack up.

Sixteen character routes run at once, crossing and tangling as the mystery around the school builds. Who becomes an ally and who turns against you depends entirely on the choices you make, which means one playthrough only shows part of the picture.

The game moves in episodes, each covering a set stretch of in-game days, with the story planned across four such episodes. You spend your time meeting students and faculty, picking through dialogue, and watching how earlier choices color later scenes. Replaying is less a suggestion than the actual way the branching structure is meant to be seen.
