About the game

A spooky choices-matter mystery set in 2004 Switzerland. Many students have disappeared in Noirmont High over the past century. You're Lou, you just transferred here, and weird stuff immediately starts happening... will you be the next dropout?

Original Steam description

Rewind back to 2004 and find out why so many students are going missing in the infamous Swiss boarding school of Noirmont High.

  • Choose your fear (do you have scary intrusive thoughts, an irrational fear of a duck watching you or are you just afraid people will notice you're stupid?)

  • And choose everything else! because it's a choice-matters game
