About the game

The classic visual novel from AQUAPLUS that launched one of Japan's most beloved franchises, WHITE ALBUM is a story of love in many forms. Will a couple cling together, or drift apart on the cold wind? The album of their relationship will be as white as snow, and as poignant.

What players say

Visual novels have come a long way. I really wanted to play TWA2, but since it's not on Steam I played the first, knowing from reviews it was totally different and older in how it's written and presented.
