Come out in college! Meet people, make friends, and maybe find a boyfriend? · By
Hi, I'm loving the game, it's brilliant!
I just have a problem with the secret route :(
I've been trying for over 3 days but I really can't get to date him. I've also followed your hints but nothing seems to be working for me..
Will you ever consider to upload a walkthrough?
Thanks for creating such a beautiful game. Kudos!
(sorry for my broken English, it is not my mother tongue. I hope it is understandable enough tho)
Hi Mitsuki! I'm glad you're enjoying the game.
I'd prefer to avoid public walkthroughs for now (although I don't mind if someone else wanted to post a video walkthrough or similar).
However, a more specific hint: Your goal is to get close to Carlos such that he comes out to you on October 6. This will happen if he likes you but has NOT freaked out about it. There's four "freakout" points, so your goal is to avoid all of those while getting close to the two of them:
On August 27, don't go swimming with Carlos
On September 8, ask for nachos when you go to the movies with Adam and Carlos, causing Carlos to go with Adam to get them
On September 24, don't go running with Carlos
On October 1, don't seek Carlos out at the frat
The other requirements should be fairly straightforward, especially in Easy Mode. I'll also note that intervening when the shit hits the fan with Robert will give you a lot of relationship points, and taking Jake to Q&A (instead of Adam) is also useful.
Hi there,
I've followed the advice here, however if I try and come out to Jake as early as possible, I'm not given the chance to go running with Carlos to say no to him. If I try and spend as much time as I can with Carlos, I'm forced to take Adam to Q&A. Where am I going wrong? Why can't I manage to get this fifth ending?
Spend as much time as possible with Carlos except for those four scenes. If you're playing in easy mode, you can actually skip them completely. (You can also go to the movies with him and Adam, and ask for nachos, which will cause Carlos to leave with Adam to get food.)
So it shouldn't matter that you can't go running with Carlos.
So regarding the October 6th Confession, these four points are incredibly valid, but also - Some deviation from Carlos's route is okay, at least to get Carlos to confess to you - I had to miss a chance to hang out with Adam and Carlos to meet Jake and the group, for example, and declined when Jake asked my character out.
On October 6th, Carlos still confessed to me about his orientation, and that night I had a dream about Adam, so perhaps I'm on the right track?
Hello Bob! First of all I adore the game! However no matter how many combinations I've tried I can't seem to get the Adam ending. I've manage to get Carlos to come out and I've tried all combinations I can think of. Sadly I admit I haven't managed to get Jake to go to the Q&A with me instead of Adam AND not fail any exams/coursework AND get Carlos to come out to me and Adam. (My game version is 1.0123.0-u and the difficulty level is easy!) Sorry to take up any of your time, especially with all the tips out there but I'd appreciate some extra tips? (I feel really stupid to not have managed to get that ending after so many trials)
P.S. if you don't wish to disclose more tips publicly, this is my email address peterkarakostas2000@gmail.com
You have most of the requirements then, but you're probably just slightly short on friendship because you're asking Adam to take you to Q&A (which reduces your friendship with him).
Try coming out to Jake earlier in the game, either by running into him in the hallway on a Q&A attempt, or IMing him at just the right time.
If you're still having trouble, send me an email. :) bobcgames (at) gmail.com
There are some tips in the latest devlog: https://bobcgames.itch.io/yags/devlog/67142/updates-game-tips-and-shoutouts
I would prefer not to release a full walkthrough, but I won't stop anyone else that wants to do so.
Hey Bob! I'd like to thank you for the wonderful game, been addicted to it for a whole week now!
I'd like for some help tho :( I've finished the game like 5 times already and I still can't get Adam. Been using your tips above but it just doesn't cut it for me. Is coming out too early at the frat house wrong? Because if I don't come out earlier I end up going to the Q&A with him by default :(
I'm glad you're enjoying it.
You can come out to Adam whenever; it doesn't matter. But you need to come out to someone else early, also, and get that person to go to Q&A with you instead.
Also note that Adam is less a full route than a secret ending, so once you think you've satisfied his requirements, you have to play through the rest of the game. If you succeeded (and got sufficiently close to him throughout the game), he'll ask you out when you return from winter break (after the usual "end" of the game).
I want to make a sort of mini-walkthrough for Adam's route. On day 16 of September, you have to ask Jake what he's up to. (sorry, I forgot what the application is called :/) He makes a mistake and kind of lets the MC know that he's gay. This is where you come out to Jake. You later then ask him to go with you as previously stated.
Some people have a bit of trouble with Carlos early on. What's important is that you spend as much time with him as possible before October 6, don't come off too strong or else he won't like you as much and you'll have to wait about 20 more days until he comes out. Previous posts contains the info you need and when you need to stay away from Carlos.
Now here's my question, how do you show Adam that you like him? A lot of sources say that you need to affectionate towards Adam and make him question his sexuality. Yet the only times I actually get chances to flirt with him is at the pool and when he wakes up with a boner. Anything I did wrong?
Are you playing in the easy or in the normal mode? In the normal mode is MUCH harder to get Adam's route, I've tried it myself a couple of times and I didn't manage to get it, but using the easy mode and following the tips above I got his ending in my 2nd run. So try to play in the easy mode if you haven't already done it :P
I'm trying to get the Adam route. Is anyone supposed to ask you out or vice versa? I make sure to get Jake to go to Q&A instead of Adam but when Jake comes out to Hannah the option of asking him out comes up. And as for the Carlos event on September 24 the MC just goes to talk to James. I don't even want James. Then come October Carlos doesn't come out. I've gotten it to happen a few times but I end up with no one at the end.
Adam won't ask you out until the very end of the game (after the usual ending; when you return from Christmas break), but getting Carlos to come out to you early is a requirement. If he doesn't, then you can't get the ending.
You also can't be dating anyone else throughout the entire game.
It sounds like you're not getting close enough to Carlos if he isn't coming out to you. Spend more time with him and Adam, but avoid the four freakout points.
(The James conversation is fixed if it hasn't happened yet, so you might have some luck doing it sooner at a time when you can't otherwise spend time with either Adam or Carlos.)
Chloe Spencer (cspotrun_chloe on Twitter) has started a video walkthrough series, in case anyone finds that useful. The first one is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T33GjK30ydI
I think she might be doing James next?
In addition to the active choices you make, your character's personality affects the "choices" made during the week interludes. (You'll notice stuff like "You kiss him in public" versus "You resist the urge to kiss him" depending on the MC's stats.)
You should make more "shy" choices at the beginning of the game, particularly when meeting new people, and that'll help you better handle these points.
Other that that, coming out to him early (either randomly meeting him outside Q&A or messaging him at the right time) will also help.
thank you, this and the video walkthrough by Chloe really helped.. Jake is so adorable.. all of the stories were very well written... wold have kind of been nice if you had a friends only track with Nikhil (like he knows you have a crush on him and you try things but it doesnt work out) or a romance with Nate but I know that would have been a lot and the game itself is very well done so not criticizing in the least... cant wait for the Zags sequel... keep up the great work!!
Hello I've been really enjoying this game alot. But I'm really struggling with Adam Walkthrough. I play on Mobile version. and I just can't get Carlos to come out at Oct 6th. I've been watching yt plythrough
and exactly following them but I just can't get Carlos to come out and Adam ask me out. In the video we get to go swimming with Carlos, I did the first try but still didnt come out, then I tried avoiding those 4 freakouts but still no good, I already spent time with both of them as much as possible but Carlos still dont like me? Which dates should I spent time with them?? Also I don't have the option for easy modes. It's my first playthrough, should I like finish it first to get option easy mode? Could I get to Adam route on the first playthrough? Please help. Thanks
Put the game on easy mode. Successfully go to Q&A at the earliest possible opportunity, and then keep hanging out there and offer to help him with lines for his drama show. Don't come on too strongly to him, and keep going to Q&A meetings.
If you're still having trouble, Chloe Spencer has a walkthrough video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LiJ3v2za0g
So I have a question, or possibly a request lol but will there be a feature where you can cutomize your own character in the game in the future? Cuz there's a small problem for me, I kind of have a hard time actually believing that this Chris guy is actually me, so having that feature might help me and possibly others lol, overall I freaking LOVE this game. I really hope that it will gain more attention in the future 🤟🏻
There are no further updates intended for the game at this point (other than bug fixes as appropriate)
Chris' personality should already be customizable based on your decisions early in the game, and there are no plans to add a sprite or other visual representation for him
Glad you're enjoying the game though!
Ok, so a weird thing happened : I managed to get Carlos to freak out at the movie, but despite this he didn't ask me out on 3 Oct and after that Chris seemed to switch his crush on Adam instead ( I only made him be attracted to Carlos ). I thought making Carlos freak out even once should be enough to make him ask us out and the only time I didn't spend time with him was when him and Adam were going swimming after the freak out from the movie ( cause he was still acting weird around Chris ) and when he broke his arm. I guess not seeking him at the frat house when he broke his arm made him lose interest on me ? Tho I did manage to get him to ask me out even when I didn't do that scene before ( tho I think it was on easy mode ).
In that case I managed to make Carlos ask me out without activating any of his freak out points on normal mode, cause I was sure I didn't activate any of the first 3. Tho I did make Chris act like a total simp around Carlos and didn't make my feelings for him subtle at all, so I guess it was inevitable that even Carlos would pick up on them XD.
