Rose Guns Days (ローズガンズデイズ, Rōzu Ganzu Deizu) is a Japanese Alternate history dōjin soft visual novel series written by Ryukishi07 and produced by 07th Expansion.

Gameplay

The gameplay in Rose Guns Days is primarily spent on reading the story's narrative and dialogue. The text is accompanied by character sprites over background art made from altered real-world photographs. Throughout gameplay, the player encounters a quick time event minigame of a fist fight battle sequence. The outcome of these minigames does not influence the progression of the story, and the player even has the option to skip them. The minigame has two parts: attack and defense. After the player successfully attacks three times, the player can then perform an overkill attack whose power is determined by the choice of one of six cards. How well the player performs in the minigames determines the total score and emblems awarded, and as the score increases, so does the player's rank, which increases the difficulty of the minigames. Occasionally, the player will be able to choose where a character will go for side stories before progressing the main game.

Story

Rose Guns Days takes place in an alternate history Tokyo following the end of World War II. On April 1, 1944, Japan was largely destroyed by a natural disaster, bringing an abrupt end to the war.
