Difficulty

The game has three modes of difficulty setting. Easy, Normal and Hard. This does not change the content of the game, just your journey through the game.

The main effect of the difficulty setting is the Affinity and Persona systems. The threshold for achieving a high affinity is reduced in easy mode and increased in hard, compared to normal.

Affinity

The affinity system is the measure of your progress with each character.

Persona

The persona is a capped points system and is your attitude towards characters. Either a ‘Mr Nice Guy’‘Bad Boy’ or ‘Neutral’ approach.

Events

The game is a series of linear events which make up the time of day system – Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Night. The majority of the game will take place in the first three time periods, with the player usually sleeping at night.

Choices

Which location to visit, character to interact with and dialogue are all choices the game.

A choice might not have an obvious or immediate effect. Choosing to spend time with a specific character means you also chose not to spend time with another character.

Impulsive

A choice that jumps ahead and skips content, usually awarding affinity in the process.

Look Closer

As the name suggests, the look closer option allows you to get a closer look at a character, or rather a specific part of that character.

Collectables

There are two types of collectables in the game. Unlockables and Panties.

Trophies

The trophies are awarded the first time you complete specific actions. They can only be awarded once for each play through. Playing the game again and completing that action with a different character will award a new trophy.
