About This Game
"You are joining our club."
You're young, you're energetic, you dream of writing a thesis on extinct nation, it is hot summer outside and the sky is blinding and blue, and you have a whole full life ahead of you. Good times! Summer training takes place far away from the City, your room is far from being comfy and the campus roofs give leaks like they're made of paper. But there is a bright side to it!
