The Rebound

The Rebound is an adult college-life visual novel about reinvention and second chances. You play as a college student trying to escape a slump—heartbroken, directionless, and living on instant noodles and poor decisions. After a turning point, you're forced to step up and rebuild your life, meeting new people, pursuing romance, and navigating NSFW encounters along the way. Basketball serves as both literal sport and metaphor for self-improvement: compete in a unique 3-on-3 strategic card game, explore diverse locations, and pursue multiple female characters, each with distinct personalities and story arcs. The game features branching narratives shaped by player choice, mini-games, voice acting, and high-quality animations, all centered on the theme of getting back on your feet.
