6 itemsAbout the Game
*Notice: This game currently supports Japanese only.
Two bizarre ghost stories told in the dead of night.
This is a short horror visual novel where you progress the story with simple clicks.
Embracing the atmospheric, creeping dread of classic ghost stories, the game uses text and sound to slowly build tension, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the narrative.
Experience a psychological horror where noticing the eerie "inconsistencies" hidden within the tales brings the concealed truth to the surface.
[Story]
It is the night of a soccer club's training camp.
In a quiet room past lights-out, the "Teacher" begins to recount inexplicable events from his past.
One is a bizarre phenomenon on an eerie mountain he visited before becoming a teacher.
The other is a gruesome incident at the sea involving his high school friends.
At first glance, they seem to be nothing more than ordinary, terrifying ghost stories.
Why is the teacher telling these stories now, at this training camp?
What is the true nature of the strange "inconsistencies" lurking within these recounted memories?
When you finish listening to all the stories, you will understand their true meaning.
[Game Features]
Two Ghost Stories Told at Camp: Read through two terrifying experiences set in entirely different locations.
The "Inconsistencies" Lurking in the Story: The storyteller dispassionately recounts his past memories. However, several inexplicable descriptions are scattered throughout. By reading carefully, you will catch glimpses of "another face" to the narrative—proving it is not just a simple ghost story.
The "Choices" to Unravel the Truth: After finishing the two stories, your "deduction" will be put to the test. Uncover the true nature of the inconsistencies within the memories and make the correct choices.
Endings: 4 Endings (2 Normal Endings, 1 True Ending, 1 Bad Ending)
Playtime: Approx. 1 hour. Experience a rich, intense psychological horror in a single sitting, much like watching a short film.
