Dear Players,

Welcome to Dunkenwood House—your new school.

You are Arenda Finch. After being expelled from your church-run girls' school for speaking too many blasphemous words, you've been transferred to this co-ed school.

To adapt to your new life here, you'd do well to remember these basic rules:

You are not a detective.

Your primary goal is to study hard, mend your relationship with your brother, graduate, and inherit the substantial fortune your father left behind.

Strange things may happen, and you might find some bizarre objects—this school has a very long and intricate history, after all.

In fact, conspiracies, crimes, and malevolent individuals could very well exist.

You will face choices—some that can save you from immediate danger and others that will shape your future.

If your school life becomes too dull, you can dig deeper into the mysteries of the the manor’s history and your family’s secrets, and uncover the dark secrets of those around you.

But be warned: the truth always comes at a cost.

Good luck, hope you will enjoy your life at your new school!

Regards,

Domus Aurea

This game looks incredible, I love the art and the story/aesthetics look right up my alley!

Just one question. It seems we'll be able to romance male students in this game, but are there any female love interests? I'll 100% buy it if there are!

Thank you so much for your interest in our game! To answer the question: While the game does feature romance elements, they primarily serve to complement the storyline rather than being the central focus. The main character won't be able to romance female characters in the game.

That said, we absolutely support and encourage fan creations of all kinds! If you'd like to explore stories that go beyond the game's official narrative, we warmly invite you to check out our community, where players will share amazing fan works and ideas in the future~

This is exactly the dark academia-style I’ve been looking for. Its unique and exquisite art style takes me back to the early 2000s!
