FAQ

• Q: How can I change my player character?
  A: During the Bedroom phase, select a non-player character in the Community tab and press the green button underneath the character stats.

Bedroom

Save/Load

The game must be saved manually and can only be saved during the Bedroom phase. At the top of the Save/Load menu is a button allowing you to create a new savefile with a name and optional notes. Existing saves can be overwritten or loaded. Saves can also be favorited, which places them at the top of the list of saves.

Community

You are initially given 12 slots to assign characters to, but this can optionally be increased to 24 after a confirmation prompt. Buttons on the side give you the option to rearrange characters or randomize each slot.

NOTE: expanding the community to 24 characters greatly increases the chance of being interrupted. Due to the limited number of maps (7), there will likely be no areas that do not have an NPC within. This is not recommended if you wish to experience normal gameplay.

Fortune

Fortune can be found on the Bedroom on the right side of the screen. Tapping and starting a fortune can give you various bonuses for the day ahead.

Dating

Dating is quite simple in SVS and works very differently from the spiritual predecessor, AA2. During the week, Monday-Saturday, the player and all NPCs can ask each other on a Sunday BBQ Date. This can be found under the "Express your feelings" option when talking to an NPC and selecting 'Ask on a Date'.

When Sunday rolls around, wait until the 2nd period (noon). When the period begins, most, if not all, characters will be at the river, including your character. At this time, if you have any dates you asked out, a new menu option for 'Start BBQ Date' will appear under the 'Everyone Lets...' right below the 'Everyone, lets H'. It will begin the date with ALL characters that you have a date with that are not busy. You will then move to a location and have a short cutscene for the BBQ date. After this, you can continue the period as normal or even shout to start the date again if any NPCs did not join the first time. Likewise, NPCs will also shout to start dates. It works exactly the same way the player does.

NOTES:

• You CAN invite multiple girls on dates and accept multiple dates without penalty
• the period does NOT end after dates

Blackmailing

This is not a catch all for all info related to blackmailing as it is complicated and we are still finding out new things.

The basics of blackmailing is that you or another NPC found you or another NPC doing a blackmailable action. These actions include

• Public Masturbation
• Public H with a non-lover while having a lover (IE Cheating)
• Kissing or groping in public (Applies to characters that have the 'Schemer' trait only)

When the player witnesses any of the above, a new option that was previously grayed out will now be available at the bottom when talking to an NPC. You will then have the option to blackmail them. If successful, they will submit to you. The following are the chances of the blackmail being a success:

• 20% base
• 40% base when Blackmailer has the 'Schemer' trait
• 100% base when the target has the 'Masochist' trait

This is unconfirmed: Multiple witnessing of blackmailable material without confronting them will double the chance of a successful blackmail. Example: without Schemer trait, finding the same NPC masturbating twice will bump the chance up to 40% instead of 20%. Note that if the blackmailing fails, it resets back to 20% the next time there is blackmail material.

Once a character has been successfully blackmailed, there are 4 new options available.

• "Avoid" will make the character avoid interactions with the selected character
• "Show Me" will make female characters show you their boobs. Male characters have dialogue but don't appear to actually show anything (Tested by erolesbian, update if anything is found)
• "Let me hold you" will force a sex scene with them. Depending on their attributes, horniness, and like/love level, they may hate it or like it but will perform the action with 100% success.
• "I'll let you go" will disable blackmail option and release them until you blackmail them again.

Additionally, NPCs can blackmail the player! The same rules apply here too except it seems that the player can always accept or reject the blackmailing with no consequences.

Blackmailing tips and tricks

• When NPCs witness an action that embarrasses them or makes them horny, they may run away and masturbate. If you see a NPC running with their head in their hands, follow them! Actions that will cause this can be done by the player or other NPCs and includes: Kissing, Groping, Public H
• Having lots of public H will increase the likeliness of NPCs having public cheating H, which can be used for blackmailing in the right conditions
• Using the Schemer trait and kissing/groping any NPC that is in a relationship while the player is NOT in a relationship with that NPC. This will result in immediate blackmail material.
