About

Kaname Date and an AI companion investigate a kidnapping tied to a deadly escape game. Players shift between interrogating witnesses, solving environmental puzzles in dreamlike sequences, and navigating locked-room challenges. Each section feeds into the next, with clues hidden in dialogue, environments, and logic-based escapes. The narrative blends mystery with interactive problem solving, requiring attention to detail in both conversations and spatial puzzles. The game’s structure separates it from standard visual novels, using distinct gameplay loops to advance the story. Puzzle sections emphasize creativity over combat, while dream-world exploration adds surreal visuals. With release on multiple platforms, it offers flexibility for fans of story-driven adventures. Early builds suggest a strong focus on pacing, though some players note repetition in later puzzle designs.
