April 21, 2025F95

When one late night of overtime leads to a spicy fling, your long-lost feelings for your office rival unexpectedly resurface! What bottled up feelings will this predicament reveal? Will it reignite your long-lost feelings for Nanako? Where did it all go wrong between you and her? Will you reconcile with her to see if there’s something more? And how will she eventually help you to reconnect what you’ve lost in touch with: that there is more to life than just being a productive workaholic?

Developer Notes:

Office Rivals is the second episode in the anthology, following Friendly Favours. They are standalone episodes, so you do not need to play them in numerical orders.

~~Dev note: At the very end of v0.4.04, you will encounter an error, but there’s nothing beyond that point in this Chapter.~~
As of 3:50am Pacific Time (April 21, 2025), the above error has been fixed. See Nanako’s bouncing boobs here as my apology and thanks for your understanding!
