Oguzu Pegin's short horror novel game follows three close friends, Sakura, Shion, and Hina, on graduation day.

Play time is about 30 to 60 minutes, with no voice acting in the main story. The Steam release adds new stills, bonus episodes, achievements, a gallery jukebox, and controller support over the free unityroom browser version, which stays available.","whyItMatters":"The Steam release is a paid, expanded cut of a free browser game, and its loop structure means the new bonus episode is the main reason to buy it twice.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe Steam version is built on the free unityroom browser release from August 27, 2026, and adds new stills, new scenes, bonus episodes unlocked after clearing, short stories, achievements, a gallery jukebox, and controller support.
