“鬼怪题材的女性向文字恋爱游戏,关于女主在满是鬼怪的异世界,一边学习鬼语跟男鬼谈恋爱,一边收集线索找寻逃离此地办法的故事。本作可当作gal游戏看待,特别之处在于大部分对话看不懂,需要玩家通过观察联想的方式进行猜测。这种经推敲琢磨一点点理解剧情的过程犹如拨云见日,非常有成就感。游戏虽然贴有“恐怖”标签,其中也存在惊悚的画面跟一惊一乍的音效,但因为可以攻略男鬼,实际上并不吓人,胆小的玩家也可以放心食用。”

About This Game

Latest version [2.0.5]

When the protagonist wakes up, they find themselves lost in a different world. As they learn the words of the mysterious monsters that speak a strange language, they search for a way to escape.

In this alternate world, a different language is used. Players will interpret and dechiper characters' words through expressions, gestures and the objects they point to.

The language of this world isn’t as refined as human languages. One meaning is concentrated in one word, with almost no particles; a string of words conveys only a rough meaning.

This is a point-and-click adventure game. Players will investigate items to learn words or engage in conversation to progress.

Choices for actions are available at various points. Small changes in development, branching paths, or even instant death can occur.

Even if you reach a game over, you can retry from just before without any penalties.

There’s no affection management, and acquiring flags will unlock more choices. Players can freely jump back to previously encountered scenes from chapters and try again. Play comfortably and easily!

There are 20 types of mid-story endings (bad endings or unresolved problems).

There are a total of 17 endings, including character route endings and late-stage endings upon reaching Chapter 5.

*Note: There is a fake ending presented as a happy ending midway through the story, so please be careful not to misunderstand.

◆Playtime

It takes about 5 hours to complete one full playthrough of all routes.

*This game is designed with replayability in mind, where understanding character conversations may require re-watching scenes after filling up the dictionary.

◆Playing without sound is not recommended (There are sound-based effects).

Players who want to make the characters say funny things or try different playful approaches are also welcome to enjoy the game freely.
