The Hurt in Secret is a visual novel based on true events. You play as a senior student in Taiwan’s teacher-training program, undertaking a teaching internship and hoping to become a teacher. During the internship, you become involved in a difficult case drawn from campus bullying incidents. Your dialogue choices affect the story’s ending and may shape both a student’s future and your own teaching career.

The internship

The story is set in the teacher-training internship established under Taiwan’s Teacher Education Act after 2002. As you work through the case, you face limited information and competing pressures: a child’s helplessness, complaints from parents, scrutiny from colleagues, media misinterpretation and high expectations from senior teachers. The choices are difficult, and the game explores the demands of teaching beyond classroom instruction, including whether you can become the ideal teacher you hoped to be.

Dialogue and choices

You make decisions through conversations, and each response reflects a view of education. The game presents teachers’ daily routines through dialogue and asks you to consider how your choices affect the people involved.
