Summer Clover puts you to work as a live-in housekeeper for three sisters, with a supportive supervisor also part of your summer. You manage your time at the mansion as you progress through a lighthearted slice-of-life story. Adult romance mixes pure love, harem elements, and daily life into the premise—a distinctly personal housekeeping brief.
Your character begins millions of dollars in debt, struggling to make ends meet at a major conglomerate while colleagues repeatedly make false accusations of sexual harassment. Supervisor Shizuko has proposed a transfer: you would become a housekeeper at your employers' mansion, with a significant pay raise and free room and board. Under that arrangement, you would spend your time serving the mansion's owners, who happen to be three sisters.
Individual Stories
Each character has an individual story, and there are events and CGs to discover. Kasumi, the eldest sister, has a warm, nurturing manner and shows affection for Ayano and Shizuku, though she keeps a secret beneath that gentle exterior.
Middle sister Ayano seizes opportunities with an enthusiastic, go-getter attitude, but her sunny demeanor hides a burden nobody else knows about. Youngest sister Shizuku may seem distant and reserved, yet can become playful and flirtatious as you get to know her; she also pursues a secret endeavor her father disapproves of.
Shizuko is both your supervisor and a longtime supportive friend, with a bond that already extends beyond work and a relationship whose future remains an open question. The main female characters have Japanese voice acting, while the game's “heart-pounding escapades” are animated. The adult content includes full nudity and sexual scenes; the content notice specifies that all characters involved in sexual content are over the age of 20.
For readers drawn to relationship stories, the appeal here is the mix of getting past Shizuku's reserved exterior and exploring where an already close friendship with Shizuko might lead.
