About A Winter's Daydream
Nineteen-year-old Yuu can’t stand his younger sister, Otoko, and the feeling is mutual. It’s been almost a year since Yuu saw her last, having escaped his dreary home town to study in the bustling city, but with the advent of New Year’s he finds himself obliged to return to his family to celebrate.Unfortunately, Yuu’s absence has not softened his younger sister, and Otoko is just as sullen and surly as ever before.
Finding the atmosphere at home unbearable, Yuu decides to escape once more — not to the city this time, but to his grandmother’s snowy, secluded village.
The reunion between grandson and grandmother starts normally at first… until one moonlit night, when the pair witness a star streaking through the sky.
The following morning, Yuu enters the kitchen, still half-asleep, to discover...
“Who are you? What are you doing in my grandmother’s house?”
...that his grandmother has transformed into a cute young girl!
What is the reason behind his grandmother’s drastic change? Will Yuu be able to restore her to her original self? And why is she so adorable?!

MC is kind of a loser, lots of "loser trope" moments. The author got inspo for this novel from grandmother-grandson complex stories.6 found this helpful
A Winter's Daydream is a very good visual novel game with a beautiful story. The graphics are nice and the soundtrack is relaxing... The ebi-hime games are really great!!! I highly recommend it. 💗5 found this helpful
Such a sweet story! It certainly encapsulated that feeling of having missed out on connecting with certain family member because you were too young to understand or felt the were too "boring". It made me thing of my own grandparents and how I wished that I got to spend more time with those that have since passed on.1 found this helpful
A Winter's Daydream is an excellent, wonderfully-written VN. Yuu (protagonist) is a 19 year old university student who visits his grandmother, Umeko, aiming to stay with her for a day or two. He didn't count on her transforming into an attractive young lady. The story beautifully develops accordingly, especially though their interaction with Yuu's younger sister. Graphics, interface and music are all very well selected. Highly recommended!!1 found this helpful
It's short, sweet (maybe overly so) with a side of melancholy. It's not the most gripping read, but it was pleasant enough and the story covered some interesting themes.
umeko looks great in her kimono
