<Story>
Even in death, Kugayama Shiori takes her own life.
Maybe her next will finally be her last.
But no matter how many times she dies, her soul refuses to leave this world.
Maybe the answer lies in her lost memories.
Maybe there's a lingering attachment she's forgotten.
Other than her name, she remembers nothing.
Who was she?
Why did she die?
Together with you—the only living person who can still speak to her—
Shiori begins her search for her memories, and for the truth behind her death.

全エンド回収しました!展開、演出、キャラクターどれも魅力的で、面白かったです。ボリュームと比べて、ちょっと価格が高いですが、それに見合う体験を提供してくれると思います。おすすめです!
PVなどから想像できる、ありとあらゆる死に方を試して自分の死因を探っていく趣旨のゲームかと思いきやそのノリは序盤だけで普通の真相暴きサスペンスになっていく。 ぶっちゃけ一昔前のビジュアルノベルで、ED回収のためにかなり前まで戻る必要があったりして令和のドパガキ仕様とはいえない。 真相は読める人は読めるだろうが読めても話が薄まるわけではないので安心して楽しめる。 栞の声の演技がとても良い。というか声優さん全員ハマり役でボイスを聞かなかったらかなり無味乾燥なゲーム体験になると思う。 登場人物全員に役割があるし綺麗にまとまった短編。短いという声もあるがSwitch版はともかくsteam版の値段なら相応。セールなら迷う必要なし。 以下気になるといえば気になる点。 ・※一部背景素材の制作補助としてAI生成を使用しています。となっているが、立ち絵の久我山栞やカシマレイコの髪もAIの溶け方に見える。スチルはちゃんとしてるのだが。 むしろ背景はあまり気にならなかった。 ・PVから予想したのは栞、ギャル子、司書さんそれぞれの死因を探っていく中~大ボリュームのミステリADV。 しかし実際はビジュアルノベルで死様手帳が捜査メモになるわけでもない。PVで仄めかしたイジメを思わせる描写も本編に無い。 おそらく企画途中で路線変更(縮小)があって、小規模な話にまとめたか?という感じがする。 そう考えるとシナリオの若干の無理矢理感も腑に落ちるのだ。 仮にそういう経緯があったとして、小奇麗にまとめてあるのは間違いないが。

我很喜欢这个故事,真结局的叙事处理算是这段时间玩到的文字类游戏里最优秀的,当然我就问你都可以对着公共电话直接挑衅可爱的玛丽酱了还有什么可以奢求的呢?〔有种你就放马过来干我啊小鬼,老子就在电话边等着〕
Overall: 9.5/10 (just because finishing it made me sad) This game really was a tearjerker if you reach "True Ending", but the funny thing is that most people did and I reached "False Ending" first (which has lowest completion %) and had to use guide to reach it "True Ending". I love the whole presentation of this VN, moving mouths and blinking eyes gives you non static feeling for VN. The ending I love and hate (and was happy about someone getting their just desert), but this story really got me invested and also sad that it was so short (I mean pacing was great, just that I kind of wish it didn't end that way, but it was still of happy ending (if you think how things work in that world)... well this happens when you mostly read good ending stories with "and they lived happily ever after...". I really wish to see what will this dev team cook up next (fingers crossed it will be more uplifting story XD).
不知道为什么打出真结局没弹成就,只差一个害我强迫症直接拉满。 游戏剧情中规中矩,结局时的情绪渲染做得非常好,值得体验!(后面打码部分剧透)[spoiler]但是这部游戏的反转铺垫做得过于生硬。其实游戏大前期就有人(大概是图书管理员)指出“我”戴了帽子,然而这把契诃夫之枪放得太早也太隐蔽,很多人早就没印象了,没有推高反转的冲击性。当然,反转结构本身的薄弱才是问题的根源,如果均匀铺垫很容易猜出结局,所以才呈现前后重中间轻的结构。[/spoiler] 悬疑作品接触不多的玩家体验较好,进一步而言,不把它当悬疑作品的玩家体验最佳。
gyaruko-san suki!!
神神神神神,哪怕是佛祖也会为此惊叹不已吧!
玩哭了
I want a ghost waifu
- 流程短了,补结局也没有方便的跳转系统 - 多余的选择肢太多了 就像手游一样a和b只有后续一句话差别 - 宣传上噱头大于内容 + 立绘cg都很好看 + te伏笔全回收 + 真结局+2分 可以一玩的短作品,体量太小不值这个定价 7/10
