Cool story, and cute girls. What more could you want...?

 

[Deathseeker]

Cool story, and cute girls. What more could you want...?

Well an android version maybe? ? I would like to try it out.

 

[MadMansKingdom]

I got this game on Steam and OMG I love this game. The girls are beautiful and the stories are captivating. I do however recommend that you use the walkthrough for this game. Each girl has their own unique story line. I liked this game so much that I had to do each and every one of them and I don't usually prefer those kind of games. Highly recommend this game!

 

[Darth Sidious]

This version has been out for about 9 months now, it's only new on lewdcorner.

 

[Slavious]

I like this game, but its a lot of work getting through each and every specific choice in the perfect manner. I'm impressed with the dev's ability to keep it all strait heh.

 

[MD27]

Ironic that the place is called Branchfield University, this VN has some of the most numerous branching paths that I remember for a game on here. At least they put some in game wt

 

[User_79344]

I was really into this when it came out but I fell out of it... Ill have to give it a go again

 

[Mr. Mir]

The game is based on a good story, but sometimes it can seem a little too strange.

But good animations and I like that the game develops differently according to one's choice.

This makes the game playable multiple times to get it all.

 

[giantkiller]

So many girls and no harem ?

 

[Aelth]

Is there a spreadsheet of which girls paths intersect? Trying to minimize my number of playthroughs.

 

[jr1971]

Beautiful Models
Good Story
All in all a game I will always download

 

[spam753]

Any way to get a compressed version? I like this game, but 3.4 GB is really pushing it for me.

 

[rukie2013]

Not tried this game since 0.20, will give the new version ago. I remember the character models were cute and it has good story so I'm looking forward to continuing this.

 

[Psychoticgamer]

big titty alt girl

 

[lewdlove]

Blue hair and blue lips/make up

 

[k1ng24]

Quite easy to get lost with all the branches, but a nice game.

 

[lewdlove]

Quite easy to get lost with all the branches, but a nice game.

Agree, it's biggest "fault"

 

[MikeyUK]

Just recently came across this game and it seems interesting. I was wondering if anyone who has played this can tell me if this is story driven or points driven.

 

[LISexAddict]

Quite easy to get lost with all the branches, but a nice game.

It's literally impossible to get with everyone in a single playthrough, you won't even meet all of them.

It's set up in a way that the girls are in groups of about 3 or 4 and while it is possible to sleep with those inside the grouping you won't get an ending with them all. You'll probably find that 2 or more want to meet up at the same time and you'll end up having to choose.

As of yet there are no consequences but we also know that endings are going to be single girl only or maybe a couple of throuples if dev decides on that. So chances are consequences are coming.
