A játékról

Chiaroscuro Lovers is a narrative-focused visual novel.
Players experience the story through the eyes of Chu Hebai, a woman who has lived overseas for many years and suffers from psychogenic blindness caused by psychological trauma.

Her return to her long-abandoned homeland is triggered by a funeral—
a journey that brings her face to face with a past she has avoided, a web of complicated family ties, and—

a presence known as the “Lamplighter,” who has always stayed by her side.

Story

When reality becomes too blinding,
the mind chooses to veil the world.

When memories grow too heavy to bear,
consciousness creates its own “light.”

In this story, you will move between:

• A reality shaped by family, power, and conflicting interests

• Fragmented memories that refuse to fade

• A dreamlike psychological space, where you converse with the Lamplighter

As the story unfolds, you will begin to realize:
some people you believe you’ve just met, and some companions have been with you far longer than you knew.

What You Will Experience

• Narrative driven by prose and emotion
  A restrained pace and delicate emotional writing focused on relationships and inner change

• An interwoven structure of reality × dreams × psychological space
  The story unfolds across multiple layers, with truths revealed gradually

• Themes of memory, trauma, and self-protection
  There are no simple moral judgments, and no single “correct” answer

• Symbolic character design
  The Lamplighter is neither a narrator nor merely an illusion
  Who she truly is—this is an answer you must reach on your own

About Choice

This is not a game about stats or affection meters.
Your choices take the form of questions:

• Will you continue to ask?

• Will you turn away from certain truths?

• Will you face things you cannot remember, yet know still exist?

Some lights will be lit.
And some darkness, should not be forced into the light.
