About This Game

This visual novel is an emotional tale about people brought together by rock 'n roll who are questioning the meaning of their lives, struggling to find a place within society, and agonizing over what music truly means to them. 

You play as Kei, a young man from a family line of doctors who is forced him to question his path in life after certain events throw him off the rails laid before him. Through rock 'n roll you'll meet interesting people who offer new takes on life and ideals regarding music. Very few approaches you can take will prove all good or all bad, and nearly all will involve sacrificing something.

Will you abandon music and choose another path? Will you try to value each moment as it comes? Will you do whatever it takes to become a financial success? Dramatic stories will unfold as the consequence of the path you choose.

  • As a Japanese indie rock artist himself, the producer of this game brings a depth of detail into the lives and culture of indie rock artists that enhances the atmosphere and setting in ways that few others can lay claim to.

  • In addition to the rockin' background tracks used for ambience during the story, this game contains a full CD's worth of original rock songs created explicitly to represent the tones and styles of the different bands that perform in-game.

  • The decisions you make throughout the game will lead you down one of five potential paths, each fully fleshed out with many hours of content delving into the consequences of each road taken.

  • Aside from the protagonist Kei, all of the characters both major and minor are fully voiced throughout the story, bringing another layer of richness and depth.

This game is pretty good, following a rock band since its inception to whatever may await them. However, it's not perfect, and there are some points of contention: [b]The protag[/b] Kei Tsushima is a weird guy for certain. It's very hard to move him, but there are instances of this in the game. It's not like he's a full-on psycho either. He's in a weird zone. He also treats people with some degree of kindness (he ignores almost all of the stuff Kaneda does), but that isn't unheard of for a psycho. At any rate, we can safely say that his emotional intelligence isn't that good. The thing that makes him [spoiler]drop out of high school[/spoiler], putting him on a road to pursue rock and roll, is pretty cringe. Only in the true route there's something like an aftermath, and it's mostly handwaved. That he chose that route in high school goes to show how weird he is. It's not that bad that he is weird, but he hasn't a lot of presence. Also in addition to being weird, he's some...
