An emotional story-driven episodic game about magical beings who live above the clouds and whose purpose is to help us learn to express virtues like courage or friendship. On "the courage within you", you'll change the life of a shy courage Virtue who wants to prove she can be a great Virtue too
Meet the Virtues, they are magical beings who live in a secret city above the clouds and whose purpose is to help us, virtuans, learn to express our virtues. They may use their special Instruments (like a whistle) to make us feel brave or friendly in a blink of an eye, but they can only complete their missions if they make us learn how to express virtues by ourselves.
Courage is a Virtue with confidence issues who hasn't completed a single mission in her life, but when she has a fateful encounter with you, a spark of hope begins to light in her heart. With your help, she's supposed to make a little boy named Sam face a haunted mansion to make his adventurous friend Andrea happy, but is that the only courage issue on this mission? Or is there something more?

About the demo version
The demo version works just like a shorter version of the full game.
In terms of story, it covers a day in the life of Courage until she finally decides to go to our world, Virtuanland. It's a good way to feel the premise of the story
It covers 2 of the 4 minigames ("Talk to all" and "Choose correct thoughts" are not included until later in the game) found on the full game
You can make 2 (or 3, depending on your choices) of the main game's big decisions
You'll get to meet 5 of the main characters and will have an idea of what should Courage do to complete her mission
You'll help your first virtuan (even though he's not technically a virtuan. You'll see xD)
