01 / THE GUIDE
Story Premise
You awaken in darkness with no memory, meeting a blond‑haired boy named Alice who also lacks recollection. Together you discover a crystal mirror that transports you to the Looking‑Glass World, an antiquated fairytale dreamscape.
In this world you assume the heroine’s role, interacting with twisted versions of classic characters while seeking to guide a chosen love interest toward a "happily ever after."
- Observe how each character’s backstory influences the branching paths.
- Take note of recurring motifs; they may add depth to the story's key choices.

Love Interests
Episode 3 introduces two distinct love interests: Snow White and the Wizard. Each has a standalone story set in an alternate universe where relationships differ from previous episodes.
Choosing a prince at the end of the prologue determines which narrative you will follow, shaping the story and emotional arcs you encounter.
- Compare the dialogue tones of Snow White and the Wizard to gauge their personalities.
- Consider replaying to experience both storylines, as each offers unique conclusions.
