A journey of identity and choice
VARLET is more than a typical school-life RPG—it’s a narrative-driven experience that blends personal growth, supernatural intrigue, and strategic combat. At its heart lies the question of who you truly are: a leader who inspires or a ruler who controls. Every decision inches you closer to self-discovery.

School days, shadows, and self-discovery
VARLET’s story begins at Kousei Academy, a place filled with mystery and rumors. The protagonist stumbles into a strange dimension called the Glitch, where monsters replace students, forcing him to fight alongside friends to protect the school. These dual settings—ordinary school life and surreal danger—create a gripping contrast that fuels the narrative.
Gameplay enhances this duality with its engaging systems. As a member of the Student Support Services, you help classmates through personal struggles, deepening bonds and facing consequences for your choices. Combat, meanwhile, employs the Timeline Command system, letting you fight as either a supportive “Leader” or a dominant “Ruler”. However, its pacing may feel uneven, with long stretches of dialogue and character interactions that sometimes overshadow the action.
A must-try school-life RPG
VARLET stands out because it weaves choice, relationships, and combat into a deeply personal story. With its triad stat system shaping dialogue and outcomes, every path feels uniquely yours. It’s not about saving others—it’s about uncovering the version of yourself that you were meant to be.
