The people of Shale Hill
Leah
You have a special relationship with Leah, who has been supportive of you your entire life. Gentle on the outside, but unflinching and spirited within, she is a stubborn journalism student who will do anything to reveal to the world the dark truth of Shale Hill.Sam
You and Sam came from opposite ends of your old school’s pecking order, and now, by a twist of fate, your best friend. Your quirky, distractible friend seems uncharacteristically melancholy. What is going on?Emily
Objectivity and a total focus on success are the main characteristics of Emily. She isn't afraid to make tough decisions, even if this means messing up her relationships with other people. You’d know. You’re her ex.Valerie
Valerie, Student Council President in college as well as your old high school, still considers you her protege even after you gave it all up. She seems to have a great deal of faith in you, though you can never tell whether she’s joking or flirting.Haley
Blue hair that shows an adorable defiance. That’s Haley, a lovely bartender who has dreams way bigger than being behind a counter for the rest of her life. She has a good ear for others' problems but no taste for sharing her own.Maggie
Maggie prefers dealing with animals to people, but over time, she has come to trust you. Now, this pretty redhead will need to deal with a past that has left her nervous and silent.Lidia
The impeccable and refined owner of the campus café, Lidia is a well travelled connoisseur of everything that can be roasted and brewed. But in her travels, she’s brought problems back with her.Alexis
As Shale Hill’s resident mean girl, Alexis takes her popularity for granted, but she’s not as simple as she seems. Alexis also considers herself an entrepreneur and seems undeterred that her business of choice is highly unethical.Linus
Your colleague and workmate, Linus can be both a comrade and an annoying smug asshole, usually both at the same time. He’s an unrepentant geek and much more comfortable in the tech world than you are.Dante
Dante is the ultimate paradoxical Bohemian. A weird mix of party freak and dependable role model, he’s a hard man to describe, and you don’t really know him unless you meet him. He dispenses cocktails and wisdom with equal flare, and has his ear to the ground in Shale Hill’s party scene.Toasterman
Homeless man or superhero? The answer depends on whether you ask him or anyone else. One thing is for sure, he does have detective instincts that you don’t have. It’s wise to listen to what he has to say.DLC & expansions

***MUST BUY FOR AVN FANS*** Getting it out of the way this is a 9/10 to 10/10 for AVN fans. I give the range because I don't typically herald any game as perfect but this is a masterfully crafted AVN game. This is Elite Tier AVN and goes right up there with Being a ♥♥♥, Acting Lessons, Leap of Faith, Chasing Sunsets, College Kings, etc. First and foremost, the art style and rendering are top notch. After all, with AVNs if it doesn't look good what's the point??? All the models & characters are beautiful, unique, charming, and interesting. Even the side characters are all fun and wonderfully designed and expressed. Secondly, the writing is ELITE. I laughed more often than expected, had my heart strings plucked as I empathized with various characters, was brought to the edge of my seat with each twist and turn, and was seduced by masterful pacing and narrative foreplay. All the intimate scenes feel earned and well seasoned with story-driven relevance. One of the best characters I've ever encountered in media (Valerie) has an intimate scene that takes numerous chapters to get to, but holy crap is the wait worth it. The tension, pacing, animations, descriptions, and story i…3 found this helpful

Very good game unlike some others, think blink farrrt and it's done, this one 70+ hours and with the small c0ck up I did (Leah) a handful more hours to set that right. one to play again, and tag the DLC also something I over looked :O
10/10 would play again. Loved how the plot is written. Never have I played an AVN, went to sleep and ended up thinking about how the story would unfold.
If you are into a game that builds on daily activities, then this is for you. Later on in this game there were less decisions to move one with certain people. So, I found it hard to keep up with this game. The main character can't speak from his mouth, so he has to use a machine to translate his words to speech. Once I saw how many chapters were written for this game, and to see how far I have come along and missed out on various scenes, it's time to move on. If I have a lot of time to reload this and to continue, I will. For now I need to clean my hard drive to reclaim disk space. And this game uses a lot of disk space. So it's gone.
