“一个人与一个村庄的真实故事，游戏处理得简单柔和，结束后的文字介绍也很受用。与淡淡忧伤的浪漫结局相对应的现实大环境则是冷冰的，冷冰不在于村镇的衰败，而是地方文化与情感的淡出、那些物质尺度难以丈量的事物的远离。所以我特别兴奋有学生想做地方文保和宣传类的主题，没有拨款和名誉，情真意切地关心每一寸土地上的生活。”

“short 15-minute narrative journey featuring lovely hand-drawn visuals and an emotional ending.”

“It is quite intriguing to see a developer outside of Japan lament the modern-day problems of the country and to express those concerns through a video game.”

About This Game

Nagoro is a small village in the Iya Valley on the island of Shikoku in Tokushima Prefecture, Japan. During her childhood, the valley was prosperous and the village was full of young people.

She moved away to Osaka from Nagoro when she was younger. However, when she becomes older and returns to Nagoro, the village is not the same anymore as what she remembers during her childhood.
