Yo-Jin-Bo The Bodyguards

ABOUT THE GAME:
 
Girl in the Attic is a visual novel survival game that blends tension, stealth, and quiet desperation. You play as a girl hiding in the crawlspace above a man’s house—unknown to him, or so you hope. Your only goal is to survive. To last another day. To sneak down into his home while he sleeps. To steal scraps of food, find water, patch the leaks, and maybe figure out why you're here at all.
But be careful. He hears things. He notices things. And he’s not alone in the house.
Every night is a gamble. Every choice matters. Stay too long, and you might not make it back to the attic. Stay too hungry, and you might not care.
 
HOW TO PLAY:
 
Explore and Scavenge
Slip out of the attic when it’s safe and search the house for food, water, and tools. Every room offers something useful—or something terrifying.
 
Stay Hidden
Time your movements, watch his routines, and avoid being seen or heard. Hide under furniture. Hold your breath. Don’t leave anything out of place.
 
Manage Your Needs
You’ll need to eat, drink, and rest to stay alive. Your mental state matters, too. Starvation can cloud your judgment. Sleep deprivation makes you sloppy.
 
Uncover the Past
Clues are scattered around the house. Notes, recordings, strange objects. Something about this man… and about you… isn’t right.
 
Multiple Endings
Will you escape? Will you be caught? Or will you become part of the house, forgotten and silent?

Ellie is a clumsy, air-headed, single and young girl who has a fishy companion on her backyard pool. After a long and hard day Ellie might find out that the best company it's where she least expected.

The other world is on the verge of ruin, and there’s only one way to save it… the princess needs an heir. There’s just one problem — there are no men to give it to her! That’s where I come in, whether I like it or now. I’ve been summoned to this world to save it from a horrible fate…

Shonan Saika Academy, a high-achieving all-girls school in Kanagawa Prefecture.

One day, Marin Tachibana, along with her best friends Mashiro Saotome and Kiyoka Jinguji, experiences a special day.

It begins with meeting an unusual new transfer student, Shizuku Kujyo.

A beautiful girl with a calm and dignified demeanor.

Meeting her feels like déjà vu...

While showing her around the school, they stop by an observation deck, where Marin finds a four-leaf clover.

There is a tradition at this school:

If you press a four-leaf clover found on the observation deck into your student notebook, your wish will come true.

(I want to get closer to her. To spend more time with her...)

With this wish, Marin gives Shizuku the "coincidental" four-leaf clover she found.

This act becomes a turning point, bringing Marin and Shizuku closer together with the help of Mashiro and Kiyoka. However...

"Please, stop worrying about me. I don't want to just be protected..."

"Shizuku, we're friends, right?"

A storm threatens to tear them apart.

It is deeply tied to a "secret" Shizuku is hiding and a "trauma" from Marin's past.

The story follows the growth, mutual support, and cherished memories of the four girls.

Will Marin and the others find their personal "clover" (happiness)?

As a reserved and unassuming university student in snow-bitten Hokkaido, the personal tragedy which visited Honoka Asakawa would lead to her experimentation in a magical art thought long-lost — blood magic. Unexpectedly able to visit the sealed world of Meiji-era Sapporo, Honoka's quickly taken under the wing of the cheerful and bright Lady Yasue, a powerful mage who's remained in this gilded cage for a century.
 
As their feelings for each other develop, the true repercussions of Honoka's first steps into the secret world of magic and mages are only just starting to play out, eventually leading to catastrophic consequences.
