Infos zum Spiel

Life of Tabayama is a psychological thriller visual novel set in a quiet Japanese mountain town in the early 1990s. What begins as a lighthearted high school romance quickly descends into a dark and disturbing mystery. With a deeply emotional storyline, richly developed characters, and a creeping sense of dread, this is a game that explores what happens when jealousy, desire, and hidden traumas collide.

You play as Hirohito Ishida, a charismatic yet troubled high school student. At first, life seems perfect—spending time with friends, enjoying school days, and feeling the first signs of love. But after the mysterious disappearance of your childhood friend Kumiko, everything changes. Secrets unravel. Trust fades. And what seemed like an ordinary life becomes a descent into horror.

With only one pivotal choice leading to two different endings, your decisions will shape how the truth is revealed... and who lives to see it.
