A short Visual Novel about Northern Irish Catholic Schools and Death. And Games, but just a little...

Beset with a burgeoning hangover, the task before you is clear: exorcise a haunted school and allow the ghost of a schoolgirl to pass on to the next world the way everyone knows how: completing the unfinished business that confines her to this plane.

That unfinished business? Some Maths Homework.

Originally designed as a short visual novel to be released on Halloween, that was delayed due to unforeseen circumstances, this is a zero-budget short story that some people might like.

Just want to say again that this game is incredible!

Liked this a lot! Very spooky, and good banter between the two characters. The sound does a lot for the atmosphere too.

This looks really cool! Is there a word count/estimated run time

I'd say it's approximately a 20-30 minute read, around 10,000ish words? I'll post that in the description to let people know!
