+++This is NOT A GAME IT'S MORE LIKE AN EXPERIMENTAL TAKE OF URBAN LEGEND/OLDSCHOOL TECHNOLOGY HORROR CLASSIC DELIVERED INTO A MODERN MEDIA++++ This game is like a loveletter to early 2000s, late 90s chainmail type horror legends that were very popular/widespread in Japan and other Asian countries. Think how slenderman once was, urban legend stuff. It leans HEAVILY into classic urband legends and the best one to describe it as is RINGU(The Ring, but the japanese original movie) and uses the very common theme of "spreading" the curse. The game is not supposed to be a game, which it seems a lot of people leaving bad reviews don't get - this is obviously supposed to be an experimental take of a traditional media(tales, spoken) into modern media, you are supposed to play it once, and once only, which is why the whining about the text being slow and ♥♥♥♥ is just so out of touch and irrelevant. TL:DR: +this is an experimental "game", if you expect game mechanics you are stupid and you should be looking for common horror games and not experimental japanese ones. + delivers exactly what it intends + More akin to an ARG + Classic Japanese horror themes from 90s-2000s - technology…

If you're superstitious, don't play this. It curses you for playing it, like a chain e-mail. But badly. It's also a terrible game btw. No reason to either way.

Normally i praise attempts to write a good horror story but here is sooo much left to be desired. Especially gameplay is super slow motion and actually i slept while playing. 3 Bucks is not much money but you can get way more gameplay for that ammount,. Especially during sales.
