Zero-Sum Heart Build 16283345
Zero-Sum Heart is a romantic, fantastical, and eerie coming-of-age story about love. On her eighteenth birthday, our protagonist enters a magical boarding school and makes a monumental decision that completely derails her life. In a twist of fate, a ritual sacrifice grants her everything she ever desired: an adoring faceless crowd, a dangerous new power, and a whirlwind romance that, unfortunately, remains one-sided. Without a heart in her chest, she is left to wonder how—or even if—she can truly love someone back.
The game offers a short, 2-hour narrative experience with multiple endings, seamlessly blending genres such as romance, teen drama, thriller/horror, and magical realism. Its vibrant, psychedelic hand-drawn illustrations blur the line between reality and fantasy, while an original soundtrack delivers a witchy, sinister, and groovy ambience that perfectly complements the experience.
Zero-Sum Heart does include visual depictions of self-mutilation, violence, and gore, though these elements are rendered in a non-realistic art style. Additionally, the story features limited portrayals of stalking, harassment, abuse, toxic familial and romantic relationships, murder, and suicide. It is important to note that, given the premise of the story, some romantic interactions initiated by the protagonist with magic-influenced characters may involve dubious consent.
Players who might be sensitive to any of these themes are advised to exercise caution while experiencing this unique tale.
