## Description

A young photographer, hoping to make it big, is at a concert taking photos for
the band. While he’s working there, he bumps into a cute, pink-haired girl
wearing enormous headphones, and can’t get her out of his head. Soon after, he
gets a curious work request: the girl is a young new idol named Super Sonico,
and she wants him to be her personal photographer! Now it’s up to him to help
her become a star, and perhaps the two of them will find an even deeper
relationship…

_SoniComi_ is a so-called “love communication” game starring Nitroplus’
mascot character, Super Sonico. The player plays the part of Sonico’s
photographer, and the game is divided into two main modes. Adventure mode
proceeds like a standard visual novel, with the player interacting with Sonico
and other characters through text-based responses. There are also some minor
point-and-click elements in these sequences, and the player’s responses and
actions will influence the character relations.

The other main mode is the photography mode. Throughout the game, requests
come in from various clients for certain types of photos. The player must
decide Sonico’s wardrobe for the shoot, along with the location, then can do
up to three sessions per shoot. In addition to taking photos, it is also
possible to give instructions or simply have a conversation with Sonico. The
player is graded on the photos, with the results of each shoot influencing the
story path, character relations, and even unlocking new outfits. There are
numerous different endings that can be reached depending on the player’s
performance and choices throughout the game.

There is also a free photo mode where the player can pick any unlocked outfits
and scenes, and do a photo shoot with Sonico without any specific requests or
requirements. Photos taken in this mode can be saved for later perusal.
