Developer's description
After returning to the town where your family was killed as a child, you seek to begin a new life with your loyal and optimistic best friend, Alice, and her caring mother Isabelle, the one who took you under her wing after the tragedy that befell your family. Everything seems normal, until you start having strange dreams that suggest more is going on in this town than meets the eye. Spoiler You will soon learn that some of the town's residents aren't quite from this world. And they aren't quite human, either. Some are friendly. Simple students at your own school, even. But who is to say what other sinister creatures may have crawled through to this world... and what evil plans they may be plotting. Unravel the mysteries of the small town of Sinai Hills, and uncover its dark secrets with your best friend, Alice. Explore new friendships with your fellow students, human or otherwise, and grow closer as you learn more about their past lives in foreign realms. Learn about your fated role in stopping an interdimensional incursion, as you fight alongside your new allies and their otherworldly powers to protect the ones you care for. Can you stop this supernatural threat? Can you save the ones you love? Those choices now fall into your hands.
