10 itemsAbout the Game
“Nafuda Sagashi” is a psychological exploration game set in the liminal spaces of a Japanese school, where you wander through the building searching for lost name tags.
You will walk through empty school corridors and classrooms, looking for name tags that have fallen somewhere, drifting along the boundary between the ordinary and the extraordinary.

The places you encounter—deserted classrooms, silent hallways, unnaturally wide spaces—create a subtle sense of unease that heightens the tension of the game.
