About WTC : Relentless Protagonist [SxS]
Relentless Protagonist is an interactive comedy/drama/thriller visual novel, set in a semi-fictional world of secret organisations. The protagonist and Grendel Jinx are forced to work together - due to the machinations of Grendel's mother - in order to stop an enemy group from launching a devastating weapon on the world.
Unfortunately, the mission does not go as planned, and the protagonist and Grendel find themselves trapped in the "Pleasant Grove Secondary School", where everyone believes they are transfer students.
After the initial shock, the pair gradually get to know their classmates, and things seem to be going well - at least for a short time.
However, it's not long before teachers and classmates meet violent ends. If neither the protagonist nor Grendel want to become another casualty, a way out of their predicament is needed.
Will the protagonist and Grendel be able to solve the mystery? Are the murders caused by invisible aliens called the 'Enemies Of Civilisation' or something more mundane?The Council of the UnseenFounded by Abigail Herrera and Frederick Jinx as a means of exacting revenge for the suffering they endured throughout their lives, the Council of the Unseen is dedicated to achieving world domination. Its tools of influence include espionage, extortion, blackmail, sabotage, and propaganda. While the Council typically refrains from killing, it is fully prepared to do so if deemed necessary.The Council's main base is located somewhere in America, operating under the guise of a legitimate corporation, Mr. Nibbles Fortune Holdings. They maintain listening stations and satellite bases around the globe, gathering information to manipulate people, corporations, nations, and even presidents at will.However, much to Abigail's frustration, other younger and more reckless organizations also aim to rule the world. Adding to her irritation, The Council's plans for domination are persistently thwarted by their nemesis: The Phoenix Custodians.The Phoenix CustodiansThe Phoenix Custodians were formed shortly after The Council's inception—or so its "official history" claims. According to this same account, their funding is provided by all the democratic nations of the world.The protagonist, an ex-computer programmer, was recruited by The Phoenix Custodians following a devastating terrorist attack on their home city. The protagonist’s ideals—favouring thoughtful problem-solving over "shoot first, ask questions later" tactics—were not universally popular within the organization. After completing their training, the protagonist was assigned a suicide mission targeting Grendel Jinx, the kleptomaniacal and megalomaniacal daughter of Abigail Herrera and Frederick Jinx.Defying all expectations, the protagonist not only survived the encounter with Grendel but also saved her from a nearly fatal, self-inflicted explosion. This earned the protagonist Grendel's "friendship" (at great financial expense) and drew the attention of her parents, Abigail and Frederick.As a reward for a "successful mission", the protagonist is put in charge of a department tasked with combating The Council and similar organizations—though their office is nothing more than a converted broom cupboard, and their employees are openly hostile.
Grendel Jinx - a lazy, arrogant, anime-loving megalomaniacal kleptomaniac, she ends up working with the protagonist due to a slight accident involving 'The Council Of The Unseen' helicopters
Mrs. Jinx - divorced after certain events a few years previously, she now works for another group. She still involves herself with Grendels and the protagonist's life, though. Which isn't always appreciated.
Protagonists doting parents. They also harbour a secret

[b]Note:[/b] In this review, disturbing topics like [spoiler]murder and assault[/spoiler] might be mentioned, so a friendly heads up. Also, a copy of this game was gifted to me by an awesome friend. ^^ [i]WTC: Relentless Protagonist [SxS][/i] is an adventure, murder mystery visual novel (with comedical elements) developed and published by Triority Interactive Novels. You take on the roles of the protagonist (whom you can choose to play as male or female and customize their name) and Grendel, and they have to team up (despite working in opposing organizations) since they have a common goal. Their mission is to find a weapon that could potentially destroy the world and bring it back to their respective organizations, which might prove difficult. However, on the way to their destination, the protagonist and Grendel are ambushed and it looks like their story might end, but does it? On that note, I'll stop my story synopsis to avoid spoilers and all that. XD As for the gameplay, there are numerous choices presented as well as different stories to follow. For example, early on, you can choose either to follow Grendel's mom and get her perspective on the protagonist's and Grendel'…7 found this helpful
WTC : Relentless Protagonist [SxS] is not a game, it's an e-book that's been dumped on Steam masquerading as a game. As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay, it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which poses the question, "How did something this badly written end up on Steam?". When someone hoping to become an author is unable to get published in print, they spend $100 and dump their high school fan-fiction onto Steam, under the guise of a game. This e-book was slapped together with the godawfully bad RenPy Visual Novel/E-Book construction kit, so just like no professional writing took place here, no professional game development took place either, it's just a product of filling out templates in the construction kit. As usual from this failed writer, who only ever managed to get a book onto online bookstores by paying a lot of money to publish an error riddled and factually incorrect coding manual some decades ago which nobody bought, this high school tier anime club cringefest fanfiction is basically about his imaginary girlfriend waifu that he wants to date.

Each game release improves on the last. From just a few minutes in, I can tell this is definitely one of the better WTC releases out there. Comments disabled because I wont be able to hear you over the car radio anyway.3 found this helpful
One of the best visual novels i have read and played. Good story, good line up of playable case, good art work, some of the teachers made me miss college life.3 found this helpful
WTC: Relentless Protagonist is a breath of fresh air for the franchise, maintaining the usual WTC formula but taking us to whole new areas and introducing new power groups. Big at 6-8 hours and loads of location variety. WTC Relentless Protagonist follows WTC's usual formula, providing exactly the sort of light-hearted hijinks you expect from this franchise. This is one of the better ones, and also one of the biggest. For more niche curation, follow me at: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/27440015-CSH-Picone/3 found this helpful

The protagonist and Grendel Jinx work together to recover a weapon from Shadow Crew, located in Zafast City. Once they reach the destination, they get attacked and rendered unconscious until they find themselves to be in front of a school. Following a school schedule and going through each day figuring things out, murders start happening around the school. Using their wits and flamboyant personalities, they must figure out what is going at the school before they become victims themselves. [h1]Pros:[/h1] [b]1.[/b] This story feels reminiscent of the first Welcome to Chichester, which is not a bad thing. My complaints with some of the previous titles were that the stories felt like it didn't follow the overall feeling of WTC, they felt like they were just side stories and nothing else.
