Evaluation

VARLET launched on Steam on August 27, 2025 as a complete school-life RPG. All three DLC items — a digital soundtrack, a digital artbook, and a costume pack — were released simultaneously with the base game on launch day, functioning as pre-order or deluxe edition bonuses rather than post-launch content additions. The developer shipped a feature update on January 28, 2026 (Ver.1.10) adding New Game+ mode and various balance and UI improvements, and a bug fix shortly after launch for a DLC distribution error. There are no unreleased DLC items listed on the store, no developer roadmap or announcement of future content, and no statements indicating additional expansions or updates are planned. The developer's last communication was January 28, 2026. The game appears to have launched as a finished, self-contained product with all announced content already delivered.

About this game

This isn't a story about finding someone else—it's about finding yourself.

VARLET is a school-life RPG about self-discovery, experienced through meeting others who struggle with the question of who they truly are, and grow through that very struggle.

▮STORY

Kousei Academy: where the protagonist has recently transferred.
Whispered rumors surround this place.

Another world where strange creatures dwell appears within the school...
...and once you've wandered in, there's no way back out.

After seeing this other world—a Glitch—with his own eyes,
the protagonist realizes several people have been replaced with monsters.

You must fight alongside your friends
to save the academy from imminent destruction.

▮CHARACTER

Hero (CV.Shohei Komatsu):
Your avatar in this world.Upon meeting a strange individual in a dream, he gains the power to start a revolution.


Playable members of the SSS (Student Support Services):

▮GAME SYSTEM

・Embracing Your Youth in School Life

Help other students deal with their problems as a member of the Student Support Services (SSS),and then go out with friends after school to make the most of your school days.


The bond between the two of you will grow stronger with each event you experience.
Be careful, though—becoming intimate with multiple people may cause problems…⁉

・Battles use a simple yet exhilarating Timeline Command system.
Take the lead as a “Leader” who supports allies in combat, or dominate the battlefield as a “Ruler” with powerful skills.
Use both fighting styles to seize victory!

・Your choices will reveal your true self—.Triad Stats.


Light Triad: Morality, Sympathy, Altruism
Dark Triad: Machiavellianism, Psychopathy, Narcissism
