Overview

Staying at Home is a visual novel dating sim for players who like slow, character-driven drama with an adult edge. The tone stays grounded, favoring personal conflict and everyday routine over spectacle.

Story

Michael returns home after a tragedy in his household to look after his roommate Alice, and the two navigate grief and loss together. The story follows how their relationship and personal struggles evolve over time, alongside the arcs of other people in their lives.

Gameplay

Players guide Michael through daily life at home, making choices that shape his relationships and how the people around him react to him. Decisions affect character attitudes and open different paths, including routes that lean into jealousy, rivalry, or romance depending on how choices accumulate. The game is presented through 3D-rendered scenes and animated sequences tied to key story moments.

Features

Multiple character arcs that develop independently alongside the main story
Choice-driven paths that shift based on accumulated relationship stats
3D character models with animated key scenes
Themes of voyeurism and infidelity woven into certain routes
