"You are Dave, a hyena who just finished his final year of schooling along with a few of his friends. What better way to end the school year than to spend it at an all expenses paid stay at a luxury mansion for a whole month? After all, after this month, everyone's going to be moving away to focus on their chosen paths in life, so this is the last time that everyone's going to be together for a long way.
Will romance flourish in the time spent isolated in a mansion, living the high life? Or is this all an elaborate ploy by someone pulling the strings at the mansion itself that just sees the group as a bunch of playthings for something much more sinister? Expect a story full of questions and mysteries as the friends suffer through tragedy, death, and a looming threat that grows ever closer all while trying to remember the nicer times in their lives before everything may come to an abrupt end.
Characters will die, decisions must be made, and shying away from the consequences of such will only make the journey forward harder. Can you change their fate by using the mysterious vault that seemingly wants a password to open? Is this your one salvation to save everyone?"

Thanks for the detailed reply! Of course, I didn’t read it all but I got the gist. I’m playing it right now.

I'd say you can watch these first 6 parts, but I would definitely recommend playing on your own just due to the structure of the game. I wish there was spoiler text, but since there's not I'll just say ***stop reading now if you don't want mechanical structure spoilers. (No story spoilers)*** This game isn't like Echo where you pick a route. It's not like Minotaur Hotel with it's massive variables based on choices. Password is a bit like playing with legos, using blocks of scenes to assemble something bigger than each individual part. After you get to where there's that initial route split, you will get scenes with the character you chose. If a character you didn't choose shows up in a scene with your character, then that scene happens in *both* routes. Usually there's unique dialogue once characters split up again and the scene continues. This provides two things. One is a way to keep a VN with 6 romance options feasible to complete without taking 5+ years to complete. The other is to give the person playing the ability to ask, "What were the people I didn't see doing during this time frame?" There are a lot of complexities I'm not touching on, but that's the basic gist.

Asking the Patrons, should I play Password before watching the play throughs?

I look forward to seeing this series spur on your theorycrafting among other things.
