However, the prize is actually cursed and puts the “Curse of Death” upon protagonist Subaru. Coming from this, the only way to remove the curse is to get a kiss from a beautiful girl. So, your goal is to build relationships with the various girls, in the hopes of getting a kiss.

The involved ladies include: Emilia, Rem, Ram, Beatrice, Felt, Priscilla, Anastasia, and Crusch.
