<h2 class="bb_tag" >About the Game</h2>Pay for Play is an adult romance visual novel set inside a powerhouse college football program during the first season schools can pay players directly. As Rhett Vanover, Marwick University's Director of Athletics, you are caught between the pay-for-play launch the whole sport is betting on and an investigation into the death of a 19-year-old freshman during a &quot;voluntary&quot; conditioning test. A doctor's written heat hold was overruled for a televised showcase. Safety steps were skipped. The death has been rebranded as a &quot;pre-existing condition.&quot; With a wrongful-death suit, a state investigation, a unionization push, and kickoff looming, your choices pull you into three intimate relationships—each with a woman who holds a different piece of what really happened.<h2 class="bb_tag" >Meet the Cast</h2><br><span class="bb_img_ctn"><video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871670/extras/485d9b8641da188d892584664726a764.poster.avif?t=1782410684" width=1170 height=658 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871670/extras/485d9b8641da188d892584664726a764.webm?t=1782410684" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871670/extras/485d9b8641da188d892584664726a764.mp4?t=1782410684" type="video/mp4"></video></span><br><strong>Wynn Decker — The Patron</strong><br>Chair of the NIL collective and the biggest booster in program history, Wynn is a self-made trucking magnate with the checkbook that keeps Marwick winning—and the leverage that keeps Rhett employed.
