The following is a guide to completing MAGES.’ SINce Memories: Off the Starry Sky and achieving all possible endings.
SINce Memories is available on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation platforms. You can also read our review of the game here.
This guide is based on Seiya-Saiga’s Japanese guide to the game. Give them a visit to show your thanks!
Before You Begin
This game features multiple endings. When you restart the game to unlock new endings, you may occasionally encounter “read” text, or text that you have already read. This is indicated by a lit icon on the screen.
Instead of rereading large amounts of text you’ve already seen, you can use the skip feature. On PC, this is activated by pressing E on the keyboard. On consoles/controllers, this is activated by pressing the right shoulder button.
Avoid using the force skip feature, which requires you to hold the Ctrl key on PC and the left shoulder button on consoles/controllers to skip. This will skip all text, regardless of if it’s been read or not.

I would love to.

I promise.
Could you ask your grandfather?
Invite her inside again.
I guess I don’t mind…
