[Gameplay Overview] She wants to have a word with you
Late at night, A-Ling still has things she wants to tell you.
You can sit down and listen to the stories of the past she is willing to share right now, or you can tidy up the room first before settling in for a long conversation.
In *Spring Night: Forty-Five Days in Zhaoque*, you must manage your limited time to balance companionship, your future prospects, and the quest for the truth.
How will you spend these forty-five days?
With the Imperial Examination drawing near, you must improve your attributes and build your reputation, all while keeping an eye out for clues hidden in conversations and events.
Scholarship, Demeanor, Insight, Strategy, and Sentiment—as you prepare for your future, you will also gradually become part of the lives of various characters. Every action requires you to consider the time of day, your stamina, and your funds.
What you wish to do today may not necessarily wait until tomorrow.
Relationships are woven into the details of everyday life.
A cup of tea by the table, a moment spent listening in the dead of night, or simply taking care of the trivial errands she hasn't gotten to—
As you spend time with A-Ling, you will witness these ordinary moments and gradually come to notice what she is willing to reveal to you.
Trust and desire are different facets of a relationship. The choice interface displays the costs and rewards of your actions, and you must decide: how do you wish to draw closer to her in this moment?
Where will your choices lead the story?
In Zhaoque, you will build your reputation, gather clues, and improve your attributes; through choices ranging from intimate encounters to perilous situations, you will reshape relationships, destiny, and the ultimate outcome.
After forty-five days, what kind of life do you wish to leave behind?
Feel free to add *Spring Night: Forty-Five Days in Zhaoque* to your Steam Wishlist and stay tuned for upcoming details on gameplay and characters.
