Curator Review

Recommended
By 轻游社 April 18

“女主千代要在变异的学校中找寻好友并试着逃出校园。民俗风格的恐怖气氛相当浓厚,女主与好友两名角色的互动让人感到温馨。在现世中找到前人遗留的字条,在看到古老时代的闪回中逐渐揭露游戏背景,故事剧情相当吸引人。游戏中有跳脸杀以及恐怖游戏中常见的元素,潜行跟逃脱方面也有些需要快速的操作,不过两方面都可以透过设定改得简单,所以即使是只想享受H场景跟剧情的绅士也能轻松地游玩。”

About This Game

When Chiyo and her best friend Akari were about to go home from university, a massive earthquake suddenly began to shake the entire building.

Moments later, the ground beneath them crumbled, plunging the two friends into bottomless darkness.

As Chiyo wakes up, their university has transformed into another world entirely. Now, she must find Akari and try to solve the mystery enshrouded in the demonic darkness.

Carefully explore your surroundings, always ready to hide and escape from monsters. Sometimes you will need to be stealthy, at other times you might need to run as fast as your feet can take you.

Aside from enemies, you will also have to avoid traps, find items, solve puzzles and even switch to another character to make further progress. You can switch between characters at will.

  • Customize your horror experience: You can adjust the intensity of horror events at any time. You can even select your preferred difficulty for escape events, changing the time you have to flee from enemies.

  • Hint system: You can enable hints to help with solving puzzles.

  • File system: An extensive database lists every character you have met alongside every important term, item and note that you have found.

  • Text log: Should you have missed or forgotten an important piece of dialogue, you can look it up in the text log.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

AI was primarily used to generate initial illustrations that closely matched a desired image. These AI-generated images were then partially traced over to create line drawings, which were further refined through painting by the developer. The process involved not merely overlaying or editing the AI output but drawing from scratch based on the AI-generated references, ensuring that the final artwork, while AI-assisted, was significantly transformed by the artist's hand.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

This game features mature language, vivid illustrations with graphic depictions of bloodshed, violent confrontations, and spine-chilling ghost encounters.
