2P Games and KK Narratif announce that their cozy narrative-driven life sim Fragment: A Story in Growing will be released on Steam on August 1 for $12.99/€12,79/£10.99 with a 15% discount during the first two weeks. Navigate through the daily challenges of a father, manage your everyday finances, raise your daughter and create a life full of everlasting memories. Fragment: A Story in Growing is a story composed of collages where players will choose different paths to live, shaping different stories as their lives move forward. 

ABOUT THE GAME

This could be your life. In Fragment: A Story in Growing, players will take control of a young widowed father hustling in the workplace. The main character faces the challenges of his unequal workplace environment, with meagre salaries and the escalating expenses of a growing daughter. Choose carefully as every decision will have an impact on several aspects, such as the mental well-being of your family or your financial status.

In this text-based narrative-driven game, players make choices by grouping different words to keep a balance between health, money, and food. Failing to keep that balance will have catastrophic consequences. Besides the main story, the game will also show random events grouped into four themes (work, socializing, parenting, and private time). Whether players accept or decline to take part in them will have an impact on their everyday routines. As the story progresses, players can check their past in a photo album, flipping old memories from their younger selves.

Hello! I'm Natsumi Vélez, editor and part of videogames.com. I focus on finding the most exciting news. I have been a player for as long as I can remember, I know how to defend Pokémon names well, but generation 5 is my favorite of all besides Pokémon X Y and I always chose Snivy and Fennekin in those two games. He has only played one old game from my Zelda days, which is Spirit Tracks, it is my favorite but I still have to finish it, as a child it was somewhat difficult. I also enjoy anime from Candy Candy, Doraemon and Sailor Moon, the series before Sailor Moon Crystal, super fan of Sailor Pluto's transformation music, and I watch anime more from this era like Spy x Family, A Silent Confession, Apothecary Diaries, Osomatsu-San, Shield Hero, BNA (Brand New Animal known by the creator who also made Luluco San and Little Witch Academia as well as an episode of the Star Wars series “Visions”) Romance Killer, My Fiance (The One with Miss Miyo) the odd episode of Dragon Ball, Love Live, I think all the Ghibli movies except his son's except for one, My Hero Academia, Blue Period (my favorite) and more.
