About
From Madness with Love is a dating sim developed by jamsanpoid. For some reason, you just can’t communicate with the guy you like… This is an unusual yet extraordinary experience with a cute pixel art style, fully voiced in Japanese.
As the protagonist, you are a second-year high school student who just transferred to Kokain Private Academy, because your old school got blown up and the academy was close to where you live. Spend a new and exciting high school life at this new school, and try to get a love life as well with one of four lovely guys.
The four candidates are: Yusuke Saeki, a bright, mischievous, good-looking, flirtatious blond guy in the same class as you; Shuji Arakawa, the sexy school nurse who rarely opens his eyes fully; Marshmallow Tamura, a mysterious cute boy who looks younger than you; and Aorta, your senior and the student council president and pale skin.
Get to know them in all sorts of regular seasonal events such as club activities, the sports festival, the summer festival, the New Year, the eel-flinging contest, and Valentine’s Day. The story will change according to the choices you make, and each character will bring you down a different route with their own ending. But if you spread yourself too thin, you might risk not being all that special to anyone at all…!
