SYNOPSIS

After a break-up turns your world inside out, you return home for Christmas hoping the change in scenery will give you space to mend a broken heart. 

Instead, the universe serves up: a charged encounter with your estranged first love, an unexpected visit from the ex you haven't quite gotten over, and an undeniable connection with the musician-next-door. 

As the clock counts down to midnight on New Year’s Eve, you'll need to choose: piece your life back together in America, or return to the life you left behind in Singapore?

Authentic, lived-in settings

Detailed flashbacks, powerful present-day moments, and epilogue vignettes bring Singapore & New York to life.

Complex, unforgettable characters, including 3 gender-selectable love interests  

Each character has their own backstories, growth arcs, and deeply personal stories that interweave with yours.

Nat - the recent ex, current flatmate

Your ex. Your flatmate. Your best friend. Warm, funny, and generous to a fault, Nat used to be your 'forever person', until the cracks begin to show. Even after calling it quits, Nat's still right there—brewing coffee just the way you like it, leaving notes on the fridge, making you question if there's still something worth saving.

Shay — the neighbor (and Christmas fling?) 

Your neighbor's new tenant is bold, full of roguish charm, and deliciously unconventional. Shay's the kind of trouble that looks like fun—perhaps the perfect antidote to heartbreak. But when this week comes to an end, how difficult will it be to say goodbye? 

Qiu — the estranged first love

Aloof, ambitious, and intense, Qiu’s the first person you fell in love with, and the first person to break your heart. After leaving for New York, you do your best to bury this part of your past. But when you meet again at the class reunion, however, you find yourself being sucked right back into Qiu's orbit...

DIVERSE SIDE CHARACTERS  

Your family is equal parts endearing and a pain in the ass—especially when they badger you about returning to Singapore every time you visit. 

Interact with a colorful cast of characters that bring Singapore to life—from your zany, affectionate best friend, Juni, to Shay's one-of-a-kind bandmates, your kindly elderly neighbor, and more! (But stay clear of Qiu's mother—this game is not a horror game.)
