You just arrived at Arlington Academy, but everything is so new and big! You're going to need help from a few senior students who will lay down the basics on how things work around here.

Introduction (also known as Chapter 0) is the first chapter of the first season and the first chapter overall of Sweet Elite. It was released on June 4, 2018, and was developed and published by Dulcet Games Inc.

Summary[]

Shortly after setting foot onto Arlington Academy's campus, Scholar quickly realizes that their new school will be very different from their former one. Everyone is decked out in high-end clothing, and they do not see any smiling faces. That is, until another student suddenly appears in front of them.

The student introduces herself as Serena, the senior in charge of showing around new arrivals. She gives Scholar a tour of the school, explaining how various game mechanics work along the way. During the tour, Scholar meets Andy, one of Serena's friends.

Once Serena finishes her explanations, she takes Scholar to see Lady Amelia Arlington, the principal of the academy. As soon as she sets her eyes on Scholar, Lady Arlington gasps in shock, looking as though she has seen a ghost.

Plot[]

After a long trip on an airport shuttle, Scholar has finally arrived at Arlington Academy. They have worked hard to get here, and have been dreaming about this moment for months. As the shuttle leaves, eager anticipation courses through Scholar. Placing their suitcase on the ground, Scholar figures that they should ask where the dorms are.

They spot a fellow student being helped out of her car by one of her butlers. As the student walks towards the school, two butlers follow her while carrying all of her luggage. Intimidated by this display of wealth, Scholar decides not to approach the student. Surveying their surroundings does little to ease their nerves: practically every student has arrived in some type of luxury vehicle. Everyone seems to be wearing clothes from expensive brands, contrasting sharply with Scholar's simple T-shirt and jeans. Scholar is aware that they should have foreseen this, but the reality is far different than what they could have imagined.

Despite their best efforts to find a friendly face, Scholar only sees cold looks. They remember how they and their friends from their previous school usually experienced joyous reunions at the start of a new school year. Scholar would have thought that that would be the case here, especially since Arlington is a boarding school. Instead of lively conversations and welcoming hugs, it seems like the most celebrating done here is with a nod, a handshake, or just ignoring everyone entirely. With a sinking feeling, Scholar begins to realize just how different living at the academy will be compared to their former school.

Even though they miss their friends and feel out of place here, Scholar does not want to let their father down. The academy only offers scholarships to ten students; getting this far only to turn back would be a huge waste.

Gathering their courage, Scholar vows to take life at the academy one step at a time. Thinking out loud, they begin to list where they should start when they are startled by the sudden appearance of a fellow student. After apologizing to Scholar, she states that she is the one in charge of giving a tour to the newcomers. Much to Scholar's embarrassment, she correctly guesses that they are among this year's batch of scholarship students.

The senior introduces herself as Serena. She will be the one to help Scholar understand the details about life at Arlington Academy. Relieved to finally see a smiling face, Scholar greets Serena, who instructs them to follow her. Apparently, Scholar has some forms to fill out before they can be showed the dorms and classrooms. Scholar dislikes the thought of paperwork, but they are thankful that they are receiving some assistance.

Scholar follows Serena into the Main Hallway. She hands them several forms, each one filled with questions. Serena explains that Arlington's administrators want to give each student the best education they can receive. To achieve this, they learn as much as they can about each pupil. Since Scholar got accepted into the academy, Serena figures that they are already familiar with the school's department system. However, since conveying information is part of her job, she will explain it regardless.

There are seven departments in total and each one deals with a different type of career field. It is up to each student to figure out which department is the best fit for them, based on their own talents and personality traits. Serena assures Scholar that their choice of department will not have any affect on who they can befriend or date. Serena's last choice of word throws Scholar off a bit. Smirking, Serena teases Scholar, saying that they must have thought about dating at some point. Before Scholar can respond, Serena moves on to an explanation of what each department's focus is.

She begins with the Business, Commerce and Politics Department. This department is for students who want a position in politics, or wish to create their own business one day. Those who like taking the lead and want to make the world a better place will be able to get a head start here.

Next is the Pure and Applied Sciences Department. For those with a passion for technology, this department will help them become future engineers and innovators. Any student who is curious, logical, and open-minded will get the most out of this department.

The Department of Health Sciences and Biology is for students who want to get into the world of medicine. Students who are hardworking, caring, and love give others a helping hand will find that this department will suit them the best.

The Athletics Department is for the sports enthusiasts and other students who love physical activities. Those who love to move and have a competitive streak will feel most at home here.

The Department of Fine Arts is for the artists of the world. Students in this department will be able to let their creativity fly in any medium of their choosing.

The Performing Arts Department is for students who love the stage. Any outgoing student with a flair for the dramatic will be able to polish their skills here.

The final department is the Fashion Department, which is geared towards students with an eye for style. Aspiring models, ambitious fashion designers, and other fashion concious teenagers will get the most out of this department.

Even though Scholar's department has already been filed away, Serena wants them to confirm their choice. She warns Scholar to choose wisely as their department cannot be easily changed. Scholar accepts this warning, leading Serena to give them the department form.

A pop-up will appear. Click the department you want your Scholar to join from the drop down menu, then click the green check mark circle at the bottom of the pop up.

Scholar hands back the form to Serena, who then brings Scholar to their dorm. This is where they will be rooming until graduation. Scholar cannot help but be impressed by how well furnished their dorm is, believing it costs more than their entire apartment back home.

Serena launches into an explanation of the navigation bar that sits on the left side of the brower's screen:

The first icon introduced is the white dress on a wire hanger. Clicking this icon will lead you to Scholar's wardrobe, where you can change Scholar's appearance and outfit as well as shop for new clothes.

Underneath that icon is a solid white heart symbol. Clicking this icon will open up a list of all the characters Scholar has met. You will be able to see how much each character likes your Scholar, as well as read their profiles.

Above the dress icon is a white console controller symbol. This will bring you to a list of available chapters and where you will be able to access the game. Just click the "Play" button on the chapter you want to play. Illustrations and achievements can also be viewed on this page by clicking on the their corresponding buttons.

Serena says that not many players manage to completely unlock everything, and she wonders if you will be able to. You can either repeat the explanation of the navigation bar and its icons or you can continue by having Scholar say that they take her statement as a challenge.

There is one last bit of paperwork that Scholar has to fill out: a medical form. Serena emphasizes the importance of this file, though Scholar snarks internally that they might as well be writing out their life's story at this point.

Another pop up appears, this one with a box to type in your Scholar's name. Once you have typed in a name you are sastified with, click the green check mark circle at the bottom of the pop up. A second pop up will appear, this one a drop down menu with the pronouns "he", "she", and "they". Select the pronoun you would like your Scholar to be refered to, then click the green check mark circle.

Scholar cannot think of any other medical form they have seen that resembles that one. Serena states that all of Scholar's paperwork is now complete. Having been shown where their dorm is, Serena prompts Scholar to go explore the school. Unsure how to do that, Scholar asks Serena for instructions. Serena explains that pink circles will appear in each location and clicking one will lead Scholar to another part of the school. When you hover your mouse over a circle, the name of a location will appear. Serena encourages Scholar to try it out, reassuring them that she will stay put.

At this point, you can move around the environment for however long or little you wish. Simply return to Scholar's dorm when you want to continue. When you do, Serena will greet you and Scholar will ask Serena for more information.

Serena will remember that she has yet to discuss what Keys are. Keys are used to unlock chapters and each chapter requires a different amount of keys to unlock. Once unlocked, the whole chapter will be avialable to play. The first few chapters of Sweet Elite are automatically free. You can view the amount of Keys you have at the top of the game's screen.

More Keys can purchased with the use of Diamonds, and both Keys and Diamonds can be obtained by clicking on their respective icons at the top of the game's screen. Additionally, Diamonds can be converted into Arlington Coins, a type of currency that lets you purchase clothes for your Scholar from the Clothes Store.

Scholar worries that they might be forced to pay for Keys, which Serena assures is not the case. The Daily Reward gives out five keys per day; simply log in and claim the reward to obtain Keys for free.

Serena will ask Scholar if they would like her to repeat everything. You can go back to the beginning of Serena's explaination of Keys or you can continue by having Scholar say that they will remember everything.

Serena states that Scholar will need their energy to fulfill their destiny at Arlington. Additionally, all the characters Scholar will meet throughout the game will be with them until the end.

Scholar admits that they would like to make some new friends. Serena explains that some characters will be easier to get along with than others. All of them will have an infinity meter which will change depending on your choices. There will be times where you will have to choose whether you want to build your friendship or relationship with them. Scholar asks how they will be able to tell the difference.

An image of two circular gray buttons appear on the left of the game's screen. The top one has a handshake symbol for friendship and the bottom one has a heart symbol for romance. Picking the friendship option will keep that character from developing a crush on your Scholar and will lock you out of romantic scenes. It is only possible to max out a character's Infinity meter by picking the romance option. Serena warns Scholar that if a character's meter is too low, they will not be able to get the date they want with the character they desire. You can choose to repeat the explanation of Infinity or you can have Scholar brush off Serena's warning.

Serena chuckles, saying that the students at Arlington Academy are not so easy to figure out. Scholar remembers their first couple minutes at the school and is inclined to believe her. She tells Scholar to give the infinity system a try by visiting her friend Andy, who is currently in Classroom 1. Serena assures Scholar that it should not be too hard to get on her good side while blushing, something Scholar notes with amusement.

Upon entering Classroom 1, Scholar meets another student, who welcomes them to Arlington. Scholar introduces themselves and tells them they are looking for Andy. The student confirms that she is the person they are looking for and asks Scholar if she can be of any help.

The friendship and romance buttons will appear. After picking the one you want, three dialogue options will show up. Andy's reaction will be determined by which of the three you pick. Whatever your choices, Andy will point out that Scholar probably still has a lot to do before classes start. She suggests that they should return to Serena to complete the introduction.

Upon entering the Main Hallway, Scholar will be greeted by Serena. Scholar thinks they have got a handle on how the friendship/romance mechanic works, with Serena stating that they will become more accustomed with it as the story progresses.

Serena suddenly remembers that she has yet to explain what replays are. There are two modes available: fun and story. Story replays can be used to erase your recorded progress and rewrite your Scholar's story. However, this requires having to replay all the chapters that following the one you want to replay. A fun replay is if you only want to replay a single chapter. Fun replays are useful if you want to try out different dialogue options, unlock missed illustrations, unlock more achievements, and so on. When you finish a fun replay, you will be able to continue where you left off previously and your story and relationships will remain unchanged. With both types of replays, you have to finish the replay in order to continue the story. You also get to keep any illustrations and achievements you manged to unlock during a replay. Replays also use Keys, though at half the cost of that chapter's original price. You can repeat the dialogue or you can have Scholar say that they understand.

At this point, Serena has told you everything that you need to know about how to play the game. If you need additional help, you can always ask the student body president. However, he is not always in the mood to help out other people, especially during the first week of school. She suggests joining their Discord Server where you can meet other players who can help you out or just generally chat about the game. If you run into any bugs or have any questions, you can send an email to the staff through "support@sweetelitegame.com".

With that, Serena announces that Scholar is now ready to start their adventure at Arlington Academy. She takes Scholar to see Lady Arlington, the principal of the school. Serena explains that Lady Arlington insists on greeting each student at the beginning of the school year. Scholar thinks that that is nice of her, to which Serena says that Lady Arlington is amiable so long as you do not break any rules, a fact Scholar hastily notes.

Scholar follows Serena until they meet Lady Arlington, who is in the lobby. Scholar supposes she must be in her forties, based on her position at the academy, but she looks much younger. Feeling both intimidated and amazed by Lady Arlington's presence, Scholar watches as Serena hands the principal their paperwork. Thanking Serena, Lady Arlington accepts the papers and turns her gaze to Scholar.

When their eyes meet, Lady Arlington gasps in shock and drops Scholar's papers. She looks as though she has seen a ghost. As the moment drags on, Scholar grows more and more anxious, unsure what to make of the principal's reaction. Feeling a little awkward herself, Serena states that she has a game to develop and makes a hasty exist. Now alone with Lady Arlington, Scholar begins to sweat a little, feeling as though the principal's eyes are staring right into their soul.

Trivia[]

  • When discussing Arlington's department system, Serena mentions that changing your Scholar's department is not easy. During a live stream where June, Ariel and Andreia play this chapter, Serena explained that the reason she included this line was to dissuade players from constantly changing their Scholar's department.[1]
  • The April 2020 update included some changes to this chapter. Some of these changes were replacing the characters of C & A with Andy, and reordering the information Serena provides.[2]
