Taimanin Yukikaze offers a long common route with up to five choices leading up to an end. There are four possible endings, including a true end.
This guide will tell you about the choices to access the various endings, mention Steam achievements, and explain the situation regarding the adult patch.
As long as you follow the walkthrough exactly as below, none of the CGs in the story will be missed. However, CGs will not all be unlocked just by completing all endings as many of them are included in the extra content as described below.
Note that this guide only applies to the 18+ version. Most of the content has been removed from the Steam version and it has no choices.
If you’ve not yet purchased this game, you may wish to first check out our review.
