Foreword

You play as a n00B God whose goal is to guide Sachi, a young col­lege stu­dent towards her 20 dif­fer­ent futures! Play each par­al­lel uni­verse and guide her as you see fit. You can enjoy boobage wob­blies, poke her, peep on her in the show­er, shove books onto her, look up her skirt, change her clothes (panties includ­ed), lis­ten to her “kyaaa,” and expe­ri­ence ran­dom Quick-Time-Events that often give you oppor­tunis­tic, voyeuris­tic views of your dis­ci­ple. Unlock boost­ers as you progress.

At first, I was kind of think­ing that this game is a waste of time, but I end­ed up rather enjoy­ing it… after I fig­ured out how to play it. The instruc­tions aren’t super clear… So, I cre­at­ed this guide to help. Most­ly, the chart is use­ful because it’s pret­ty much impos­si­ble to keep all the plus­es and minus­es straight with­out it.

Col­lect the spec­i­fied num­ber of notes and ful­fill the stat meters for each end­ing. You can always check your sta­tus in the Menu option “End­ings.”

Hints

  • Save at the end of each chap­ter just in case you mess up as you play through an End­ing
  • Appar­ent­ly (accord­ing to the inter­net) unlock­ing the rest of the Pos­es and Appli­ances comes with each start to fin­ish playthrough. Giv­en that I played through each end­ing, I should have unlocked every­thing, but I did­n’t per­haps because I uti­lized save files for most playthroughs
  • Beat­ing all End­ings unlocks Free Play Mode and Under­wear Mode
  • Appli­ances (like Rodeo and Sand­bag) appear ran­dom­ly like the Cook and the Yam­inabe Actions
  • Uti­lize the Speed x4 and the Chap­ter Skip func­tions to make events go faster
After com­plet­ing all 20 End­ings
Unlocked cos­tumes
