““片轮少女”,汉译残疾少女,起初只是日本画师的一页设定图传到了4chan引起了关注,之后不同国家的非专业开发者决定成立非盈利工作室把这页设定制成游戏。关于这次推送,首先我查了多个小帅小美版剧情介绍确定并非小众猎奇,之后基于剧情品质我推定少量成人内容的存在可接受且无恶意(蒸汽版无成人内容)。透过残疾表象,与女孩们的故事更是在探讨每个人都可能面临或缺乏思考的人生课题。如本作设定未引起你的不快,推荐。”

 

About This Game

Katawa Shoujo is a bishoujo-style visual novel set in the fictional Yamaku High School for disabled children, located somewhere in modern Japan. Hisao Nakai, a normal boy living a normal life, has his life turned upside down when a congenital heart defect forces him to move to a new school after a long hospitalization. Despite his difficulties, Hisao is able to find friends—and perhaps love, if he plays his cards right. There are five main paths corresponding to the 5 main female characters, each path following the storyline pertaining to that character.

The story is told through the perspective of the main character, using a first person narrative. The game uses a traditional text and sprite-based visual novel model with an ADV text box.
