You've been working at the Willani Epidemiology Lab as a secretary for around a year now. The researchers appreciate you, but they're not allowed to share the confidential details of their work with you. 

Things are going well until your coworkers begin acting strange and you hear rumors of the lab performing unethical experiments. As your coworkers dodge your questions, you meet a new neighbor who seems a little too eager to insert himself into your life.

Oh my god, I played Thaumo's good ending first, then Nalis's. I thought Nalis would be a bit of a soft yandere, imagine my shock when I played for his route and saw what happened lmao

THIS WAS SO FUN TO PLAY I LITERALLY LOVE THAUMO W ALL MY HEART

(+1)

I absolutely adore this game, and I can’t wait for the next update (but, still take your time, health is important)!!


Ahem, personal comment:

For me, Nalis has been my favorite from start to finish, his character is just so likeable (in my opinion) and I honestly find myself intrigued and more interested in new interactions with him. Speaking of which, he’s actually so unique to me, I never thought he was genuinely as crazily possessive as I thought—I just skimmed through the contents, skipped some and intricately read the TWs so it honestly just surprised me (I barely read through the features section and thought there was only one yandere love interest). But overall, I think he’s a bit complex and mysterious, albeit somehow really lovely all the same! Thank you for this wonderful game, I enjoyed all the endings, looking forward for more!!

I love Nalis that I tried everything to get an ending with him but It just kept going back to Thaumo.. is this one of those novels  that put another interest but you secretly can never actually get an ending with them? ;o

I got Nalis' ending on my first playthrough and then used the guide to get Thaumo's endings and I don't even know how I got Nalis the first time because all of my choices leaned towards Thaumo. I think the only choice I made between the two that got me Nalis' ending was questioning Thaumo about the spilled drink. To get Thaumo's ending instead, I only changed that to thanking him, otherwise I got the Nalis ending.

I'm probably late to answer but try to lean more for Nalis' choice and don't interact with Thaumo I can show you the choices I picked if you want but I think the guide in the development log has it :)

this made me so NAUSEOUSSS which usually would be a mean thing to say to a chef but dawg u cooooked with this i was filled with dread even when i knew what would happen

quite spooky 10/10

(+2)

thanks for the meal ~ ദ്ദി(ᵔᗜᵔ)

wahhhh i don't know how i missed playing this demo from last year's yanjam... i really like nalis. i think his obsession is very interesting! i'm very curious about his deal with thaumo... and thaumo himself is very cute too. :3 i like yanderes that are hard to deal with! the blue blush is also a charm point ★

thanks for sharing your work with us! looking forward to what comes next !

(+3)

I really like the way his blush is blue.

(+4)

rare 3-dimensional yandere characters? W game

(+1)

The game sountracks,  plot-twist storyline absolutely amazing.. normally i don't feel tension aura that easily and fun at the same time if a game manages to do that for me, it's a special game. I haven't had fun around like this expect for few games thank you so much for your hardwork.<33!

(+6)

I went ahead and got the two "good" endings for Thaumo first, and decided to try Nalis's "good" ending afterwards.



Spoilers:











Thauma remembered I gave him MC's number in the previous playthrough sfhiulsahgfluesfhgfdhhfdh

(+1)

i tried it and omg dossdjjdsjjdk THATS SO COOL

i got jumpscared by this too lmao
good to know that others experienced it too lolol

(+2)(-1)

I can not for the life of me find that 4th ending. I got letting him stay, making him leave, and swallowing.

there's an ending guide in the development log, hope it helps<3

(+1)
