This isn't a story about finding someone else—it's about finding yourself. School life RPG VARLET

To be a "leader" that guides others forward, or to be an uncompromising "ruler"... VARLET is a school life RPG where, through encounters with troubled boys and girls who are also searching for themselves, you begin to uncover a version of yourself you never knew existed. [STORY] Kousei Academy: where the protagonist has recently transferred. Whispered rumors surround this place. Another world where strange creatures dwell appears within the school... ...and once you've wandered in, there's no way back out. After seeing this other world—a Glitch—with his own eyes, the protagonist realizes several people have been replaced with monsters. You must fight alongside your friends to save the academy from imminent destruction. [GAME SYSTEM] Embracing Your Youth in School Life Help other students deal with their problems as a member of the Student Support Services (SSS),and then go out with friends after school to make the most of your school days. The bond between the two of you will grow stronger with each event you experience. Be careful, though—becoming intimate with multiple people may cause problems…!? Battles use a simple yet exhilarating Timeline Command system. Take the lead as a “Leader” who supports allies in combat, or dominate the battlefield as a “Ruler” with powerful skills. Use both fighting styles to seize victory! Your choices will reveal your true self—.Triad Stats. Light Triad: Morality, Sympathy, Altruism Dark Triad: Machiavellianism, Psychopathy, Narcissism These six stats will change according to the analyses you receive and choices you make during the game. Triad stats can increase the number of dialogue options available to you and enhance the power of passive battle skills. What course of events will your true self bring about?
