About this game

About This Game

Zen: A Gay Sequel, or ZAGS, is a gay, planner-focused, stat-based, dating sim set in college. It is a full sequel to Yearning: A Gay Story (YAGS), taking place during the spring semester of Chris' Freshman year of college.



As ZAGS is a proper sequel to YAGS, you may wish to play YAGS through at least once before playing this game, as ZAGS will spoil major plot points of YAGS. However, prior knowledge of the characters or universe are not required to enjoy this game. ZAGS is more dating-focused, and contains more adult content (including CGs), than YAGS, so you should be of legal age in your region and be willing to view adult content to play.
