Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As you may have gathered from the materials above, this project takes a form unlike most conventional games, particularly in its core concept and the freedom players are given in their correspondence.

For that reason, we hope to gather reactions and feedback from as many people as possible, and proceed with future development carefully and thoughtfully.

Using the feedback we receive from players, we plan to continue refining the experience to make it more comfortable and engaging to play, while developing the full release version of the project.
”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“until the official full release.
The Early Access period is planned to last approximately one to one and a half years from the release of this version.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“There are no additional systems or features at this stage; only the minimum core elements have been implemented.
In this Early Access version, players will correspond with only a single ghost.

The full release version will be improved and expanded based on feedback gathered from this build.

In addition, several new features are planned for the full version, including:

• the ability to correspond with three different ghosts,
• visitors who may occasionally enter the room,
• and collectible elements that allow players to gather words, records, and items throughout their experience.

Future updates are also planned to introduce additional correspondence characters and multiple endings, allowing players to explore the afterlife in greater depth.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“This section contains the same information as the “Game Description” section.
It explains the basic gameplay and mechanics, so we kindly ask that you read through it before playing.

• By using the Help button, you can call the warden assigned as your helper to request conversations or monitoring assistance.
• You can exchange letters with the character “Aonixa” and progress through the story.
• Using the item delivery feature, you may send up to four items to the character once per day.
”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The Early Access version and the full release version will be sold at the same price. No future price increases are planned.
”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will continue polishing and improving the game based on feedback from our Discord server and Steam reviews.

The more feedback and reactions we receive, the more it helps us, so we greatly look forward to hearing your thoughts and comments.

About This Game

Welcome to the Online Near-Death Experience Project, “Posthumors”!

Thank you sincerely for taking an interest in our project.

Did you know that it has become possible to communicate with the afterlife through correspondence?

Yes, we understand how difficult that may be to believe. That is precisely why we decided the best approach would be for you to experience it firsthand.

That said, the project is currently still in its experimental phase.

You will be observing the lives of “problematic ghosts” being kept in containment for research purposes, and may freely exchange letters with them.

Yes — freely.

Whether you choose to rehabilitate them, guide them toward escape, or abandon them entirely is up to you.

You may write whatever you wish.

But remember: words carry consequences.

【Controls & Features】

— About Letters —

When you look into the postbox, you will find a ghost inside the room.

By opening the “POST” tab in the lower-left corner, you may compose and send letters to the ghost.

After sending a letter, you will receive a reply anywhere from one day to several days later.

Responses from ghosts can be viewed by opening the “LOG” tab in the lower-right corner.

※Time can be skipped. You don't need to wait for a reply in real time.

— Other Interactions —

In addition to letters, you may also send various items through the Home screen.

If there is something you wish to give them — or something they request — feel free to send it along.

To ensure that even first-time participants in near-death experiences can enjoy the project, each user is assigned a personal helper who will guide them through the experience as part of the “Tutorial.”

【Streaming & Let’s Play Content】

Please feel free to stream or create content about the game!

We would appreciate it if you could include the game’s title somewhere in your stream or video description.

A special Streaming Mode is available, which censors words that may be treated as inappropriate or sensitive by certain platforms.

You can enable it either from the title screen or via the Home screen’s Settings menu by turning on the green checkmark next to:

“Look Away from Death.”

If you would like to stream the game but are worried about restrictions or moderation issues, please feel free to make use of this feature.

Additionally, because this game deals heavily with themes such as death and mental illness, we ask that all streamers and content creators provide appropriate content warnings and mention these themes in their video descriptions or related sections, regardless of whether Streaming Mode is enabled or disabled.

Through this project, we hope you will reflect upon death anew, and discover something meaningful from the experience.

［Attention］　Currently, this project only supports Japanese.
