“《文字化化》不仅成功地将“文字推理”的玩法和传统的多分支AVG完美地融合在了一起,还在以非恋爱为基础的前提下,将一款恐怖或者说非恐怖猎奇游戏做出了恐怖向人外控特供乙女游戏的感觉。
而且在喜闻乐见的外衣之下,本作还有着需要多条支线才能拼凑完整的细致剧情,整部作品的可玩性其实完全不低,几乎每个主要角色都有一个相关的结局分支。总体而言,《文字化化》是一款超出了玩家期待的作品。”

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.
