Description

LOVEPICAL-POPPY! brings renowned Japanese visual novel brand SMEE’s signature sweetness to Steam in a moege created for its 15th anniversary. Celebrating more than 150,000 sales, the game pairs its charming visual novel experience with life-simulation gameplay and a distinctive story progression system. After a fire destroys his home, the protagonist manages to find a place for his younger sister, Suzuka, at her school dormitory—but he is left without a job or anywhere stable to live. An offer to become the live-in caretaker of a girls’ dormitory suddenly gives him a way forward: a roof over his head, a paycheck, and the chance to look after his sister. Naturally, he accepts, taking on duties at the crepe café attached to the dormitory as well. The workload may be demanding, but earning a living makes it worth the effort. Dormitory life introduces him to a colorful cast: an alluring girl who seems to know him from the past, a younger sister unaccustomed to communal living, a woman with a monstrous appetite for attention, a dorm leader who secretly longs to be pampered, an endlessly carefree and laid-back gyaru, and an older sister worn down by life. With so many different personalities under one roof, his new job is anything but ordinary—but he is determined to take care of everyone!
