About

Set in the rain-soaked, atmospheric streets of 1922 Tokyo, this psychedelic visual novel follows Tamamori, a failed student turned bookstore clerk whose life spirals into a surreal nightmare. After his friends begin dying in rapid succession, he finds himself trapped in a grueling three-day time loop. It is a dark, mind-bending descent into existential dread and obsession that trades traditional branching paths for a linear, puzzle-like narrative. You aren't just reading a story; you are untangling a fever dream of hallucinations, murder, and heartbreak that refuses to hold your hand.
