Huanu Poems is a multi-ending love adventure game. As a photographer, carrying the secret of being a bloodline inheritor of HuaNu Town, you will take lovely Peach to run a B&B, encounter gentle Cloudia. Your choices will affect the direction of the story.
RPG Gamers summaryHuanu Poems is an intriguing love adventure game heavily influenced by ancient Chinese culture, specifically the old Chinese nickname for cats, Hua Nu. In the game, players will undertake the role of a photographer, carrying a secret affiliation to the mystical Hua Nu Town, as they manage a bed and breakfast with the endearing Peach.
Throughout Huanu Poems, you will have constant interactions with four unique catgirls: the lively and loyal Peach, the gentle Cloudia, the aloof and beautiful Zhizhi, and the high-spirited Meimei. Each catgirl has their distinct personality and species characteristics faithfully mirrored from real-world cat breeds.
The game offers multi-branch interactions that require quick-witted responses from the player, fostering a realistic simulation-experience where having great speed matters, similar to real interaction with felines. Moreover, the choices you make within the game have actual weight, guiding the story to its multiple endings without a so-called likability score system. This means that your decisions, much like sliding doors, lead to distinct destinies.
Another unique feature is the in-game photography: players will use an old fixed-lens camera to immortalize moments with the catgirls. The quality of the images relies on the players’ skills, embodying the notion that clicking the shutter at the right time can make all the difference.
Furthermore, there’s the much-anticipated Photo Studio. Here, once you’ve successfully cleared a specific catgirl’s storyline, you’ll get the opportunity to take photos of her. Clearing various storylines offers you the chance to photograph all four catgirls. A hidden ending in the game even allows the unlocking of additional outfits for the catgirls.
Overall, Huanu Poems provides an immersive experience, combining love-adventure aspects with fast-paced gaming, within a charmingly crafted Chinese cultural backdrop.
