JOHN ROUTE NOTES:

  • John’s route has three main endings: The Dawn End (Best), The Astray End (Love Rival), and The Clown End (Bad). This guide will help you achieve all three endings.
  • The Astray End is a love rival/triangle path between John and Ascot. To trigger this path you will need to have raised Ascot’s Affection to at least 2 by the end of chapter 3. (This path does have an unlockable CG)
  • After completing the Dawn and Clown endings, you will be able to read two John specific side stories from the Scrapbook. These are short text based extras that expand on the story. (There are no unlockable CGs)
  • Finishing John’s Dawn End unlocks the True route.

Prologue

Note: New scenario, He Still Doesn’t Know Her Name triggers after Edward and Ascot’s routes are unlocked. This is an Edward specific scene.

Common Route – Chapter 2

Note: The tea location choice does not effect individual route branching. You can choose any of the guys and still unlock your target route. But, I do recommend playing through all the options at least once.

    • The entrance hall. [Ascot Encounter] [Trust Up]
    • The library. [Lucas Encounter] [Trust Up]
    • The drawing room. [Edward Encounter] [Trust Up]

Common Route – Chapter 3

  • Mrs. Verde taught me. [Trust Up]
  • [Exploration] Go everywhere 🙂
  • [See the Truth] View all the shards 🙂

Note: The below choice is an important one, it will determine which route you branch off to. You will know you’re on your target route based on who dances with you all the Debutante Ball.

  • This choice determines the individual route you get:
    • Alfred > [Alfred Route]
    • Linus > [Linus Route]
    • Lucas > [Lucas Route]
    • Ascot > [Ascot Route] (When unlocked)
    • Edward > [Edward Route] (When unlocked)
