About This Game



The Story

Shanghai, 2003

Suddenly, Baichuan senses something is not right with his life - sometimes, he feels he can see his memories, so real yet so unfamiliar. This all seems to begin with an unexpected invitation from Baichuan's ex-girlfriend, Qiuyu, who has been away for many years.

Twelve summer days, just like twelve lucid dreams...

"The time seems to be working anomalously on you."




The Characters

Dream-chasing, freelancer artist - Fengyi;
Troubled and misguided high school student - Xiaobo;
A university student who is burdened by her family's issue - Jingxian.
......

Even though their lives are a total mess, they still manage to carry on, embrace and accept their "regrets", and live to the fullest.




The Gameplay

Through the 'Topics' and 'Clues' gathered from everyday life, dive deep into the hearts and minds of your dearest friends.

To be comforted by them; To be inspired by them; To turn all the little things that happened in your life into your own strength, and eventually, at the finale of the twelfth night –

To " fix" the shattered dream.




The Stages

Classrooms, Bookstore "What-If", Neighbourhood Cafe...

Much of every boy and girl's life revolves around such a mundane city scene. And it is precisely within the mundanity that some new possibilities exist. The key to turning one's fate around may very much be held in the hand of someone passing by among the crowds on the streets...
