Act 1 is the first "gameplay scenario" of Katawa Shoujo. While Hisao must adjust to his new school (and new health condition) he meets the various students at Yamaku, including the five girls Hisao can have a relationship with: Shizune, Lilly, Hanako, Emi, and Rin. The entire takes place over the course of a week -- Monday to Sunday -- ending on the school festival, where Hisao realizes he has feelings for whichever girl the player as favored.
Unlike Acts Two through Four, which stay fairly linear on the character's path, Act 1 can vary widely depending on which choices the character makes. In some cases, the entire Saturday is spent with one girl at a tea shop. In others, Hisao can meet each girl in a single day. The choices presented and paths are entirely dependent on Hisao's choices, which influence variables within the code. Specifically, how much interest Hisao has toward any given girl at anytime. However, there are certain constants, and certain scenes which always show up, no matter which choice is taken.
