Play Seasons Of Sakura Online

Seasons of Sakura is one of those old-school dating sims that somehow sticks with you, even though it looks like a relic compared to modern visual novels. You play as a transfer student in Japan, and right off the bat, you’re thrown into conversations with girls who are basically love letters to classic anime—there’s an Evangelion type, a Rayearth type, you get the idea. The pixel art hasn’t aged gracefully, but the writing gives these characters way more personality than you’d expect.

What makes it tricky (and weirdly satisfying) is how easy it is to mess up. Pick the wrong dialogue option, and suddenly you’re locked out of a route without realizing it. Some endings take real effort to stumble into, which makes finally getting one feel like an actual achievement. It’s janky, nostalgic, and still weirdly charming if you can look past the MS-DOS-era quirks.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
