Overview
Press Hunter is a 2D visual novel for players who like office-set adult drama with a mix of ambition and desire. The tone stays grounded, focused on rivalry and attraction rather than fantasy or spectacle.
Story
A new hire at a powerful journalism company quickly learns that talent alone won't secure his place. Coworkers smile while competing for advantage, and professional boundaries blur as attraction complicates every interaction. Each choice affects both his career and the relationships he can't avoid getting drawn into.
Gameplay
Play as the male protagonist navigating office politics and personal entanglements through dialogue choices and daily events. Movement between locations follows a sandbox structure, letting players choose who to approach and when. Occasional mini-games and side activities break up the visual novel pacing between story scenes.
Features
- 2D character art paired with animated scenes for key moments
