About Root Double -Before Crime * After Days- Xtend Edition

The year is 2030. Business is as usual in the isolated research city of Rokumei–that is until several explosions suddenly go off in the nuclear research facility known as “LABO.” The city sends in “Sirius,” an elite rescue squad, to deal with the situation. But the situation only gets worse when LABO’s nuclear reactor melts down, sending the facility into lockdown–with members of Sirius and survivors still trapped inside. With lethal radiation leaking everywhere and not enough anti-radiation medication to last until lockdown lifts, the survivors make more and more grim discoveries. In their struggle for survival, in a deathtrap full of fire and radiation, they learn that doubt is their greatest enemy, and trust their greatest asset.

The story of Root Double features two different protagonists: Watase Kasasagi, a rescue squad captain who has lost his memories in the hours after the incident, and Natsuhiko Tenkawa, a student piecing together the clues in the six days before. The only key to survival lies in the player’s hands with the Senses Sympathy System (SSS). Unlike traditional visual novels, Root Double does not have clear cut “choices,” but rather, the game uses SSS to allow the player to manipulate the story based purely upon emotion. Your emotions projected upon the characters, particularly your trust in them, shape the progression of the story. Only with effective use of this system and completion of both protagonists’ stories can the player piece together the truth and hope to discover a way out of the facility.

Recommended May 3, 2026
slow start, incredible payoff Root Double absolutely hooked me once the mystery started unfolding. Watching the events inside LABO play out from multiple perspectives, making choices through the Senses Sympathy System, and slowly piecing together what actually happened kept me glued to the screen. It can get pretty heavy on exposition, especially early on, but the character writing and plot twists more than make up for it. If you enjoy sci-fi visual novels with complex timelines, great mysteries, and those "wait... WHAT?" moments, this one is an easy recommendation.

Came into this knowing basically nothing about it and was very pleasantly surprised. The story was highly engaging, the mystery aspect unfolded in a way where it felt rewarding to think about what it was presenting and predict what the answers were going to be. The "Senses Sympathy" System for choices is unfortunately overly obtuse for what is really just choosing between 2~4 options and while thematically relevant does not add as much to the game as it perhaps could have. Highly recommended if you enjoy VNs in general and especially if you enjoy mysteries and stories with a focus on things like psychology, communication and loss.

Start with the A route. A very chonky adventure-thriller that caused me to stay up late for several nights just because I was frequently on the edge of my seat. Did it really take me 40 hours to get through the main story? Gaddang. I don't like the SSS gimmick, though. I get it's narratively fitting but repeatedly having to repeatedly reload just to get the character to do what I've intended is just tedious trial-end-error. It's a relatively minor gripe, though. It didn't impede my enjoyment -too- much.

Definitely one of the better stories I've seen, with plenty of twists - I was able to predict some, but not others, so I'd say it hit a pretty good balance there. Hunting for all possible endings was fun, too. I wish more people knew about this game.

Sitting in my backlog for almost a decade.. I'm glad I finally played it. It's truly a wonderful story!
