Premise
The game takes place in Shinkōmi, a fictional region in Japan that is run by the yakuza and where crime is rampant.[1][2] The main character, Towa, lives an unhealthy lifestyle, frequently abusing alcohol and smoking cigarettes. His sole hobby is painting[2][3] and he gets himself in exceedingly dangerous situations to find new models to paint, often getting himself hurt during the process. His goal is to paint "human desire."[1]
The story branches off into different routes, each focusing on one of his potential love interest. Only two routes are available at first, with two more routes unlocked later in the game.[2]
