Bonds of Love is a slow-paced adult visual novel, meaning you will not be mindlessly lusting after everything that walks on two legs, but rather will come to realise you want to be involved with the girls around you. You live out your school life in a house with three women, but meet many more, whose relationship to you is for you to decide. You can stick with the default landlady, flattie stuff, or you could be a little bit closer.

Choices matter in this game, but you won’t be locked into your path. Want to push a girl at the start but then be nice to her down the line? You can, and the game will often reflect that change. Now, this isn’t a game that allows you to end up in 10 different iterations depending on your choices, but your choices will make a notable difference, with no right or wrong ‘choices’ such as those where you can bizarrely get a game over or gate you out of content.
