Ningyou Tsukai 2

About

Ningyou Tsukai 2 is a 1996 adventure and fighting game from developer Forest, available on Windows and PC-9800 systems. You play as Rika and Sandy, two scientists investigating a series of crimes tied to Silhouettes, mechanical constructs powered by human thoughts. As their experiments spiral into chaos, the robots turn violent under the influence of dark desires. The game alternates between turn-based combat against corrupted machines and visual novel-style story progression, with choices impacting the outcome. The narrative leans into adult themes, blending sci-fi intrigue with explicit content. The game is remembered for its bold approach to mature subjects, which led to its cult status in Japan. Though not widely released outside its home country, it’s a nostalgic pick among retro fans for its early 90s design and over-the-top plot. Some community chatter online cites its dated but colorful presentation and unpredictable story beats. With a small but dedicated following, it’s a polarizing title that reflects its era’s experimental gaming trends.
