Overview
SaladVN is a text-based dating sim for players who want a school-life story with a darker, harder edge beneath the everyday setting. The tone shifts between hopeful and uneasy, never settling into pure lightness.
Story
A second-year student senses that this new year feels different from the last, and that expectation slowly pulls him into events he did not plan for. What began as a private joke among its creators became a full story about ordinary hopes turning into something far less ordinary once other people, and their intentions, get involved.
Gameplay
Play centers on reading through branching text conversations and choices as the protagonist moves through school life and the people in it. Decisions shape which of several endings the story closes on, with different paths revealing different sides of the same setting and cast. Some sequences use recurring visual scenes rather than pure text to mark key moments.
Features
- Multiple distinct endings based on player choices
- Mix of 2D and 3D character art across scenes
- School-life setting used as a backdrop for darker turns rather than a lighthearted campus story
Notes
This game includes non-consensual and incest-related content alongside its dating-sim elements; readers sensitive to those themes should be aware before starting.
