In visual novel Everbloom, you will have to uncover the mystery of the strange happenings that occurred in the protagonist’s home town after the passing of the first World War.
The streets, seemingly empty but with strange growths all over, create an unsettling atmosphere in Everbloom. As you explore this overgrown place, you’ll want to keep your eyes peeled for creatures that lurk in the dark and clues as to how they came to be.
You will follow the story of Aster, a young man who receives a mysterious letter from his father. In search of answers, Aster returns to his home town to seek clarity, but he is only met with an even deeper mystery. Players will have to aid Aster by solving puzzles and piecing together many clues from papers left behind. Be careful, though, as some clues may require you to delve into some dangerous alleyways. Who knows what may be lurking in the depths?
Everbloom’s captivating art style is paired with an original soundtrack to create an experience that will hook players in and immerse them in the story of a decrepit town full of secrets.
