Many students commute to Souryou or live on campus in the dormitories. It is the start of a new term, and Tokita Yuuki finally passes the entrance exam to Souryou, where his childhood friend Mitsui Takumi is attending. To be able to enter the same campus life as his sought-after friend is a dream for Yuuki; until their relations take a rapid change based on a turn of events... Nishizuka Otoya has just finished summer vacation, where he worked at a beach club house. During this time he witnessed a boy trying to commit suicide, whom he saved. Now with summer vacation behind him, he enters Souryou for another year, and finds that Serizawa Shiki, the boy he had saved, is also attending. Otoya finds himself wanting to know the reasons behind Shiki's introverted attitude... Asou Takayasu is a transfer student to Souryou from Kansai. He also worked at the beach club house during the summer, spending his free time playing fighting games at the local arcade. Never able to beat the scores of a DJ RYU, one day Takayasu meets him and drives him out. Now Takayasu finds himself meeting DJ RYU again after entering Souryou, where he is introduced to Otoya's friend, Hamana Ryuuusuke. His feelings for Ryuusuke start to change from rivalry to friendship, to more... Three different stories weave together in a high school love story. What choices will they make, as their feelings start to grow, unable to be stopped like the falling of snow? [From: [Boys' Love Games Headquarters](http://blgames.ukepile.com/database/snow/snow.php)] ## Characters ### Asou Takayasu (麻生　隆康) Asou Takayasu transfers to Souryou from Kansai (and naturally, speaks with a Kansai dialect), and stays in the dorms. He is a very energetic person, but also very jealous and selfish. He worked with Otoya at a beach clubhouse during the summer, and would go to play the fighting game "Limit Breaker" with him at the local arcade Trafalgar. There he met "DJ RYU", the player with scores he could never beat, and he drives him out of the arcade. Upon entering Souryou, Takayasu finds that "DJ RYU" is Hamana Ryuusuke, Otoya's friend. He likes going to the movies and playing games at the arcade as well as online games. He also loves cats, and has a pet cat named Cube whom he adores (he even uses "CUBE" as his arcade score input name), but he was unable to bring Cube with him since the dormitory does not allow pets.
