Summary
This game isn't particularly hard when it comes to getting all the achievements- I did however find some of the endings to be slightly more difficult to achieve than others, so this here is just a quick and hopefully simple guide to get you all of the endings available.

****2 of Aleister's endings seem to be bugged at the moment and won't show up in the steam library as being unlocked, they are however attainable in game and so I've added them to the guide.
To unlock his bugged achievements, you need to change the language to russian before the last choice.


Obviously I recommend playing through this delightful little game by yourself first so you can appreciate the story and characters at your own pace and in your own style. For my first playthrough I like to pick options based on my own personality and playstyle and see what sort of ending I get from my choices.
I usually end up dead or whatever so that probably says something about me deep down...

For those of you who may be stuck on one or two things, or want to speed through the game for easy 100% completion (tut tut! lol) I hope this guide will come in handy!
Have fun reading and happy gaming!

Aleister
One of the Darkrose triplets and all around snooty, purebred elf. What's not to love? ;)
*Note that in the first bit of dialogue it's fine to exhaust all options when talking to Lauren- I did for my initial playthrough and it didn't seem to make any difference whether I talked to her, told her to leave me alone or just go with the maybe some other time option. I only picked that choice because it seemed the less cold of the two quick answers.

Bad Ending- "We're too different"
Currently bugged

  • Maybe some other time. I don't need anything right now, Lauren.
  • Hide
  • Don't say anything
  • I wouldn't say so
  • Go home this instant
  • Don't say anything
  • I won't go and see Goldstone. I'd rather explain myself to Uncle.
  • Listen in on the conversation
  • I have nothing to talk to him about. I'm not going.
  • Don't ask anything
  • I better say I was alone
  • Accept security
  • Aleister
  • Complain to Aleister about his sisters

Good Ending- "I'm staying with you"
Currently bugged

  • Maybe some other time. I don't need anything right now, Lauren.
  • Hide
  • Don't say anything
  • I wouldn't say so
  • Follow the stranger
  • I better leave him alone
  • Don't say anything
  • I won't go to see Goldstone. I'd rather explain myself to Uncle
  • Listen in on the conversation
  • Hm... I wonder what he wants to talk about. I think I should go
  • Don't ask anything
  • I think I should tell the Detective the truth
  • Accept Security
  • Aleister
  • Talk back to the sisters when I meet them

Perfect Ending- "Together Forever"

  • Maybe some other time. I don't need anything right now, Lauren
  • Stay where I am
  • Don't say anything
  • I wouldn't say so
  • Follow the stranger
  • I better leave him alone
  • Don't say anything
  • I better not make the Professor angry and go see him
  • Listen in on the conversation
  • Hm... I wonder what he wants to talk about. I think I should go
  • Don't ask anything
  • I think I should tell the Detective the truth
  • Accept security
  • Aleister
  • Talk back to the sisters when I meet them

This should get you all of Aleister's endings and relevent CGs. I realise that a lot of my answers are similar in each route. In my initial playthrough I tried all different combinations and got the different endings but for the purpose of the guide I went for the simplest options (imo)
Robin

  • Don't ask anything
  • I think I should tell the Detective the truth
  • Accept security
  • Robin

  • Accept security
  • Maximilian
  • To demolished prison
  • Confess to having feelings for the Detective




Death CGs
These are probably the easiest outcomes to get, well at least they were (and usually are in most Otome games!) for me but I thought I'd add them in for good measure anyway. It doesn't matter what options you pick up until the last one, I just chose the quickest choices for the guide.

Death CGs

  • Leave me alone
  • Hide
  • Don't say anything
  • I wouldn't say so
  • Follow the stranger (Save here)
  • I'll demand an explanation- CG
  • (Load save)
  • I better leave him alone
  • Don't say anything
  • Don't go and see Professor Goldstone
  • Walk past
  • Don't meet with Aleister
  • Don't ask anything
  • Say you were here alone
  • Refuse security- CG

That's it for the guide. Hope it was easy enough to follow and there weren't too many spelling/grammatical mistakes (I'm tired, that's my excuse).
Thanks for reading!! ~ Tch. ~

That's what happens if you do not read the introduction to the guide correctly :-)

No problem, it's a weird bug for sure xD
Hexalotte 29 Mar, 2019 @ 2:43pm 
Oh it worked, thank you!!
Hexalotte 29 Mar, 2019 @ 2:39pm 
I didn`t know that, thank you, I`ll try it.

Did you switch to russian for the last choice in those routes? It should work after you do that.
Hexalotte 29 Mar, 2019 @ 1:47pm 
Good Ending. too

"Bad Ending" is still bugged... I followed the guide, but didn`t get the achievement.
