Merry Crisis (Demo)
Three loves. One week. Zero chill. Merry Crisis is an intimate, character-driven romance visual novel about love, loss, and belonging—is home what you left behind, or where you’re headed?
Long synopsis
After a break-up turns your world inside out, you return home for Christmas hoping the change in scenery will give you space to mend a broken heart.
Instead, the universe serves up: a charged encounter with your estranged first love, an unexpected visit from the ex you haven’t quite gotten over, and an undeniable connection with the musician-next-door.
As the clock counts down to midnight on New Year’s Eve, you’ll need to choose: piece your life back together in America, or return to the life you left behind in Singapore?

Love interests
Nat – the recent ex, current flatmate
Your ex. Your flatmate. Your best friend. Warm, funny, and generous to a fault, Nat used to be your ‘forever person’, until the cracks begin to show. Even after calling it quits, Nat’s still right there—brewing coffee just the way you like it, leaving notes on the fridge, making you question if there’s still something worth saving.
Shay — the neighbor (and Christmas fling?)
Your neighbor’s new tenant is bold, full of roguish charm, and deliciously unconventional. Shay’s the kind of trouble that looks like fun—perhaps the perfect antidote to heartbreak. But when this week comes to an end, how difficult will it be to say goodbye?
Qiu — the estranged first love
Aloof, ambitious, and intense, Qiu’s the first person you fell in love with, and the first person to break your heart. After leaving for New York, you do your best to bury this part of your past. But when you meet again at the class reunion, however, you find yourself being sucked right back into Qiu’s orbit…
