Proletariat life isn’t easy, but Elise always tries to be brave and maintains a positive attitude. As she labors from dawn to dusk in a factory, however, she thinks about the seemingly inescapable future that will throw her into a life of disgrace. What a harsh world for a young girl who really just wants to play the piano.

Elise Shelley

Elise has everything she wished for: a comfortable bourgeois life, a nice job as a piano player, and kindhearted people whom she accepts as family. What, then, is this feeling of anxiety gnawing at her heart? Why does she feel that she has lost a piece of herself? Why can’t she find a place where she belongs?

As one of the top students in Overture’s most prestigious school of magical science, Franz is entrusted with a research project that may revolutionize the magic industry. Unfortunately he isn’t enthusiastic about this research, but will it perhaps lead him to that which he truly desires?

Student, Magician, Researcher, Teaching Assistant

Explore Overture with Elise, Franz and Frederic as they set on their own paths, each joined by one thing: a broken piano.

This visual novel allows you to explore the world where each person is gifted in different types of magic that has been revolutionized into creating magic machinery. The industry is evolving and the world of this visual novel finds itself on the forefront of technology—at the cost of their own working class. But in a world where magic defines your class, there is unrest in the background and rumors of a revolution are stirring.

Amongst all this magic, there is something that they can’t do: use healing magic on inanimate objects. As Franz does his final year project at school on just that—healing inanimate objects—most people find it a fruitless study. Due to fate, he is able to get financial backing from Frederic’s Dad because of Elise and her desire to fix a broken piano with her healing magic.

Little do the characters know that on the edges of their lives a revolution is brewing that can shake their whole existence and the world of Overture.

Join the adventure in this visual novel, unlike any other visual novel you’ve played before, as you question right and wrong, good and bad and everything in between. Does Overture really need a revolution?
