An explanation of some of the games mechanics
 
 

Basic info

– First of all: get the patch from Kagura Games. Otherwise you’ll be playing a really boring game.
 
– This game is focused on NTR, so if that’s not your thing, you probably won’t enjoy it. The Ryoka endings are uneventful and you never get to f*ck her.
 
– Your stats only matter for the Happy Ending, you can ignore them for all other routes.
 
– The game makes you think you can “save” Ryoka from rapey events, but it’s not possible.
 
– There multiple routes to take, but none of them converge, so choose your route and stick to it.
 
– Routes that aren’t the Happy or Normal ending need to be triggered, and most can only be triggered by walking around with Ryoka. Triggers are shown as a “!”.
 
– Each route has 2 triggers, if you only did the first one, that route isn’t “chosen” yet, and you can choose another one.
 
– Once a route is chosen, there’s no need for you to do anything, but you can’t just skip the day, you have to let time pa*s (press L) and either call Ryoka or try to find her. She’ll randomly spend time with someone else.
 
– Starting multiple routes will lead to getting one of the endings chosen at random from the routes started.
 
– Some daily life events are marked on your calendar. These will trigger automatically depending on the route you took, don’t panic if you get a message that something got cancelled.
 
 
 

Items

Town Items

 
– Straw pillow. Give it to old man Tago (first shop in Ibuki) to trigger an event with him an Saki on Tuesdays or Thursdays after 2pm (he must have it by then in order to trigger)
 
– Lubricant. Give it to old man Tago to trigger another event with him an Saki on Tuesdays or Thursdays after 2pm. He must already have the straw pillow
 
– Condom. Give it to the guy inside the same store you bought it to get a videogame
 
 

City Items

 
– Bride Stealer. Give it to old man Tago to trigger the final event with him an Saki on Tuesdays or Thursdays after 2pm. He must already have the lubricant.
 
– Morning after pill. I couldn’t figure out what to do with it. Ryoka can be pregnant in the game, but this doesn’t seem to trigger anything
