Clockwork Hearts

Clockwork Hearts is a visual novel for players who want emotional, character-focused romance over lighthearted fantasy. Its tone leans somber and reflective, built around loss rather than comedy.

Story

A grieving young man inherits a pocket watch capable of splitting time itself. Through it, he enters supernatural loops tied to three women, each reliving the worst moment of her life. He must choose one echo and follow that woman through grief and desire, toward the difficult work of letting her go.

Gameplay

Play centers on selecting one woman's timeline and moving through her memories scene by scene, watching how choices shape her arc and the ending that follows. The pacing favors reading and reaction over branching decision trees, with the pocket watch framing each loop as a fixed emotional journey rather than an open sandbox. Multiple endings reward following an echo through to its close.
