So I started playing this game only because of the Jaye cameo in Leap of Faith, buy boy I'm sure glad I did. Even though I prefer character driven stories over plot driven ones because LI choices make more sense that way, this story is still very enjoyable and the characters are very likeable and diverse. I really like most of them but have to give an edge to Tara just for her intro scene on her car, hard to top that. I have played the current content a couple times and only have 2 minor critiques. First I hated that I am not allowed to dive and save Jaye when she goes overboard if you are competing with her, I mean she is still MC's sister and only family left, no sibling rivalry will get on the way of saving their life. Second was when I did a no sex route (yea don't ask me why) Mallory still forces herself on MC during the scene where MC is writing in his journal recapping the last few weeks on the last chapter, even when I friendzoned both her and Jaye. Not sure if it was a bug or I did something wrong without realizing it. Anyway really good story and can't wait for next chapter to see how things turn out.

The security certificates used with Mixdrop seem to be a bit flaky... access can be compromised by the country you live in, the browser you use or the AV / security software you use. :(

Using the Patreon link is the easiest... click on the link, right click on the link of the updated mod & save to the directory where your game is. :)

I believe it is technically possible to avoid Mallory's sex-during-montage scene, but it requires some drastic actions. The first option would be to recommend *AGAINST* treating Amanda in Chapter 4; combined with turning Mallory down at the end of Chapter 3, this will kill her romance path for good. The second option is to say you feel appalled by the reveal of Mallory's genetics in Chapter 5, which will likewise sever the romance option regardless of your previous choices. (The third option would be to say you slept with Mallory only to help her during the morning after conversation in Chapter 6, but that would require sleeping with her first so it presumably wouldn't work for a no sex run.)

As long as you've killed the romance path, you won't be grandfathered into the sex scene with Mallory at the end of Chapter 7; it will still be implied the MC is fooling around with Lisa instead, but it's specified they've stopped short of sex thus far. Unfortunately, anything less than scorched earth with Mallory is interpreted as having an open relationship with her. It's a very frustrating side effect of the way the game was coded.

The devs unquestionably put a lot of effort into the game, but they've always struggled with how to handle players turning down girls; they try to infer our intentions without asking us directly, but there just isn't enough granularity to handle all the potential outcomes. I guess they didn't think anyone genuinely played these games for the story. :(

I believe there's also a dialogue option in the storage room when discussing her father that will prevent her from coming to your room at night, making sure the path doesn't trigger + no point loss. At least that works for me, whenever I try to avoid Mallory. As always, I'm open to be proven wrong.

Damn reaction limit (y)
Great review bro, I also get annoyed when the MC in a game starts to act completely out of my direction, it immdiately breaks my immersion in the story, and I just continue to follow what is happening as a side observer rather than acting player.

So that's when I have to keep telling myself that this isn't a story in the making, it's still a novell, albeit with a limited number of alternate plotlines. I think it's not the devs' malicious intent to kill Jaye off in front of shocked players, it's their slightly clumsy way of limiting the excessive branching that game was getting with each chapter and focus on the main paths to get to the end of the story within a reasonable time.

And I totally agree with your point, this is completely contrary to the character of the Alex we have seen so far, he will never stand still and watch his sister die, even if they are rivals and he holds a grudge.

That's possible. It's also possible you could avoid her path if you drive your points with her low enough. Unfortunately, It's difficult to tell for certain from the walkthrough; the game has a really bad habit of setting a flag in a given scene, then forgetting to set that same flag in logically consistent ways if you missed the scene. I know you can kill Mallory's path if you refused to help with her 'therapy,' but I'm not sure you'll still kill the path if you avoided the opportunity to refuse her. o_O


Why doesn't anyone talk about Erica? she's my favourite side girl.

:unsure::unsure:
Mine too, but there doesn't seem to be much to say about her. The MC showed no interest in starting an actual relationship with her while he was visiting, and he never tries to contact her afterwards; it's always Erica who texts him. AFAICT the MC sees her as a one night stand... just like the devs. :cry:

Because she was just a stand-in for who he really wanted...

Erica has two paths. If MC encourages her mom to divorce her dad, then it seems like that ends her relationship with MC. Vice versa, it seems as though she is going to show up with her two travel companions and fuck MC's brains out in an epic foursome. Not sure which path is best ...

Does this update have Chapter 8?
No, the current update is Chapter 7. Because v0.1 was the prologue, the update number of the game isn't in synch with the Chapter number. It's a bit confusing but such is life.

AFAICT, Erica has a bunch of 'paths,' though it's not clear if they'll amount to much in the end. If the MC kept it in his pants during the snowstorm and didn't save the wolf cub then Erica will still text him as friend, but won't tease him about her girlfriends. Otherwise, it seems like there are a bunch of variations of Erica's text depending on the MC's decision in the snowstorm, the state of Linda's marriage, and Schrodinger's wolf.
