Merry Crisis
Non-Euro-centric x Romance-focused x Slice-of-life x Queer x Coming-of-age
Merry crisis is an intimate, contemplative visual novel about figuring out whether home is what you’ve left behind, or where you’re headed.
Your carefully-constructed life in New York has just fallen apart. Your 4-year relationship has unraveled, you need to find a new apartment to rent, and career-wise, you teeter on the edge of burnout.
Now, you’re flying back to Singapore for Christmas, and your family will most certainly ask when you’re returning home for good.
Between family dinners that turn into interrogations, a tense reunion with your first-love, unexpected sparks with a charming neighbor, and late-night walks through a city both familiar and foreign, the week back home throws up more questions than answers.
As the days tick down to the New Year, you'll need to decide: will you hold onto the life you've built in America, or circle back to the one you left behind in Singapore? Second chances or fresh starts?
