Description

Secrets In Focus blends humor, romance, and sexual encounters with a largely realistic mystery that reaches uncomfortably close to home. You play as a male protagonist sharing a home with Ember, a beautiful, fiery redhead who is your roommate—or your sister when using the patch. Thanks to an inheritance, she can afford to spend her days as a fashion influencer, but her money offers little protection from the drama ahead. As you begin a new job as a systems engineer at a modeling agency, the disappearance of Mara, a model connected to the agency, draws you into a story seemingly intertwined with Ember’s family. Your first days on the job introduce a colorful cast, both inside the agency and beyond it. Blair is the sharp-tongued goth IT team lead, with no patience for management nonsense or incompetent users, while Hana is a seemingly shy junior stylist who may be far more perceptive and intelligent than she lets on. Across the street, bubbly Polynesian barista Anaru works at the local coffee shop. Your best friend Mark is a photographer juggling gorgeous but frequently irritating models, and Vanessa, the agency’s owner, former model, and resident cougar, keeps her motives difficult to decipher. There is also Indica, a free-spirited yoga teacher with advice on aligning your “large chakra”; Lea, a blonde bombshell model whose apparently dim exterior may be misleading; and Nigel, an insufferable Operations Manager who knows every management buzzword but little about using them effectively. Choices shape the visual novel’s planned branching story and multiple endings, with outcomes ranging from romantic to bittersweet—and some intended to leave you emotionally devastated. Seeing every branch and scene will require multiple playthroughs. Ember, Blair, Lea, Anaru, and Hana are the five main love interests, while several other characters offer opportunities for intimate encounters. Romance and plot twists run throughout the mystery, with an emphasis on believable relationships rather than collecting partners. Most relationships center on one-on-one romance: there is no harem, NTR, cuckolding, or gangbang content. An optional single FFM relationship offers a different romantic path and includes threesome scenes, but that relationship can be avoided entirely. There is no lesbian sex without the male protagonist present.
