! WARNING ! 

This game contains mentions and depictions of violence, blood, death, confinement, obsession, strong language etc.

If any of these topics make you uncomfortable, please do not engage. There are fluffier games out there! 

! NOTE !

This game is a prequel of another game I've made "Dalliances with the devil" BUT both games can be played as a standalone. 

No knowledge is required to play either game so, if you enjoy this game, I'll appreciate it if ya could check out the sequel! 

Levi Findley might describe himself as quite the average gentleman.

Perhaps a bit rough around the edges, but altogether ordinary.

However, others seem to disagree.

As the new transfer student, he anticipates encountering pompous brats and fuddy-duddies.

Not whispered secrets and an elusive student council.

Well--the nepotism is expected, the cult? Not so much.

Join Levi as he delves into the depths of St. Philomena's, uncovering secrets hidden behind strained smiles and heated glances.

Although, please mind the gap, one misstep and you could fall in~

Hello can you please help? it is 7 endings + 1 secret route? or 7th ending is already a secret route? 

(+1)

Hi hi, yeah its a total of 7 endings lol, I guess it's a little unclear since technically 2 endings are linked in the secret route. If you got all the CGs in the gallery then hey, A* Gold Sticker to you! You got all the endings ^^

Thank you for playing American 🦅 Robin~

Okay, one, i'd love to see more of Leuther. Of all the cast, he's the one that pulled me in more. He rubbed me the wrong way, but i'd also love to see him more.

Two, Iori is such a sweetheart, tbh. I just want to hug him at this point -i don't mind being kept by him :')-.

Three, gonna be honest here; i'm also a sucker for quick-witted and meanie character like Nadya. And i kinda like this part between Nadya and MC: "An imbecile is an imbecile. Through and through." "A btich is a btich." 😂

Yoo originally I wanted Leuther to have more scenes apart from the secret "canon end", I was thinking of implementing a boss fight scene or something if you rejected him, but got a case of serious writer's block 😭😭

Still, I'm glad that everyone who played it, got a "sussy man" vibe from him haha. Maybe I'll make a sequel of this prequel one day for Leuther ;;))

Also on Nadya, I had fun writing her. Glad it came through on the banter :))

Thank you sm for playing Oreeve ^^

Iori, my beloved <3 I'm still so curious about his family situation, he looks like he needs a hug. Great game!

🥺🥺 This comment was the motivation I needed to get through the rest of my 9-6 tbh. 

I left hints to Iori's family situation, but made it ambiguous because I like players to speculate and put their own spin on the story lol. But yeahh, he needed a massive hug :'))

Thank you for playing plant! ^^
