当火车鸣笛三秒 (2021)

I was taken by the sprites and backgrounds because they look great. Ambience sounds and music impressed me too – they are immersive and set a haunting atmosphere. Yet the English translation is ghastly. Vocabulary, phrasal verbs, tenses, idioms… they all come together into a mangled mess of gibberish. The sentences lack any cohesion, which renders the story barely legible. Even the 'cancel' button is misspelt. It might be better to simply delete the English version rather than keeping it in its sorry state. Though I personally hope this game will get the translation it deserves.

When the Train Whistles Three Seconds is a slow-burn narrative horror experience that places emotional unease and psychological tension at the center of its design rather than relying on jump scares or constant threats. Developed by 蒐藏馆工作室 and published by MedusasGame, the game tells a deeply personal story about loss, memory, and the lingering weight of unresolved trauma. You follow Yang Shu, a 27-year-old doctor whose life has stalled under the shadow of a childhood incident he has never fully confronted. A sudden, unusually lucrative job offer pulls him away from his stagnant routine and into a sequence of events that steadily erode his sense of normalcy, guiding him toward a mystery that feels both intimately personal and quietly terrifying. One of the game’s most striking qualities is how grounded it feels.

"Oh, you are honest." - "No, I'm just telling you the truth." The English translation has it's moments, but is overall very low quality. This is a visual novel with some puzzle segments. The visual novel bits are tough to follow despite Google Translate's best efforts. The puzzle segments are either way too straightforward or way too cryptic. As a horror game, this just fails. In this format, the characters don't get to shine and everything feels like filler. Achievements are alright, but grinding 50 deaths for them is a bit annoying.

The english translation is kinda awful, some sentences are impossible to understand and some (little) things are straight up not translated. This makes some of the puzzles harder than they actually are. Gameplay is fun, interesting plot!
