It's cold. It's cold, you hardly feel your own body lying on a wet stone pavement. What awaits you behind the impending, impenetrable darkness?..

Maybe it was a bad idea to run away from the orphanage. To think that they would survive in any conditions. Because now they are lying in an abandoned alley, starving to death.

But what if this is not the end? What if fate did not prepare for them a painful death, but something much more terrible?

Metal walls. A web of wires reaching for bright screens. Sharp glare on long thin needles. People in white coats, bright light. Dark hair, arm extended forward. Blindingly white eyes that see through you.

Object number 4217.

Can you find out where you ended up after your body fell on a cold pavement?

Can you solve all the mysteries of this place?

Sorry if my english is clumsy, it's not my first langage.

I have the game on steam. The writing is very neat and I enjoyed most of the routes (I only have to read Erna and Marlon's routes yet). 

I especially liked Darius' route (well paced, credible and very emotional). I liked Jeremy's and Estelle too. Morally speaking, I couldn't get into the Master's route but I could enjoy it netherless. However, I think that Killian's route is too quickly paced to be really engaging: romantic feelings happen too fast, before we have time to know the character well. Imho this is the weakest route of the game. I like most of the side character too, like Oswald, Clarence en Dana.

Good job! I'll check your other game in the future.

However I can't reach the ending called "conscious choice". In the walkthrough, it is said to choose death in the Master's route but I can't find the option. When is this choice proposed?


Thank you very much for your feedback!
On the Master's route, when the Master in the infirmary asks what you choose, you need to choose "I prefer death".

Hi so with the clicker game with Jeremy, an image is missing. After the heart appears, a grayed out image shows up. I'm unable to get past this scene since the mouse doesn't appear.

You can use the Space bar in this scene.

I'm really enjoying this game. So far I've gotten 5 endings, 4 of them for Christian. Really hoping the 5th ending I haven't gotten yet (for Christian) will be a more romantic one? I also haven't gotten to any mini games yet. Which I'm honestly fine with. (I don't like many games so I don't feel like I'm missing out)

I thought the story and characters are very good. The most important parts of any interactive fiction<3

The main problem I have with this game is that the gender is often incorrect. The art is hit or miss for me, but that's a completely subjective opinion.

I'm really hoping a walkthrough will be released at some point. There are so many endings! Between the character stats and the branching choices there are a LOT of variables to reach different endings. For someone like me, who is mostly (only) interested in getting good romantic endings, I can see where the game will become frustrating at some point.

Thank you for your review! 

You can find the walkthrough here: https://vk.com/topic-176392042_48144184

I don't know how it happened, but you got on the only branch without the possibility of romance :c But I really hope you like the other branches! Mini-games will be present, don't worry. The game is designed for 30 hours of walkthrough, so you will definitely find something that you will like.

I've always said that if a game has a sad ending I'll find it ;)  Just got the good ending for Killian's route. It was very emotional and sweet! I loved it!
