About This Game

Cadets Stories: Year One...

Is a story-driven visual novel set in the early 2000s at a Ukrainian artillery institute.

Six adult cadets share the same barracks, drills, and strict routines - but each of them carries a different past. Through conversations, memories, and personal confessions, they reveal their life stories: friendships, rivalries, ambitions, and romantic affairs that shape who they are becoming.

Follow their daily lives as they face discipline, loyalty, temptation, and difficult choices. Your performance during training and personal challenges directly influences relationships and determines how each character’s story will end.

• Around 32,000 words of narrative content across 25+ story scenes

• Story progression is regularly interrupted by gameplay segments that reflect training, decisions, and personal struggles

• Skill-based progression - your performance truly matters
