✦ AI summary
Wake up in a mysterious world where you must decipher a strange alien language through gestures, objects, and expressions to uncover the truth and escape. This point-and-click adventure features branching paths, 17 unique endings, and forgiving retry mechanics that let you freely explore different choices and revisit scenes to unlock the full story.
Latest version \When the protagonist wakes up, they find themselves lost in a different world. As they learn the words of the mysterious monsters that speak a strange language, they search for a way to escape.
In this alternate world, a different language is used. Players will interpret and dechiper characters' words through expressions, gestures and the objects they point to.
The language of this world isn’t as refined as human languages. One meaning is concentrated in one word, with almost no particles; a string of words conveys only a rough meaning.
This is a point-and-click adventure game. Players will investigate items to learn words or engage in conversation to progress.
Choices for actions are available at various points. Small changes in development, branching paths, or even instant death can occur.
Even if you reach a game over, you can retry from just before without any penalties.
There’s no affection management, and acquiring flags will unlock more choices. Players can freely jump back to previously encountered scenes from chapters and try again. Play comfortably and easily!
There are 20 types of mid-story endings (bad endings or unresolved problems).There are a total of 17 endings, including character route endings and late-stage endings upon reaching Chapter 5.*Note: There is a fake ending presented as a happy ending midway through the story, so please be careful not to misunderstand.◆PlaytimeIt takes about 5 hours to complete one full playthrough of all routes.*This game is designed with replayability in mind, where understanding character conversations may require re-watching scenes after filling up the dictionary.◆Playing without sound is not recommended (There are sound-based effects).Players who want to make the characters say funny things or try different playful approaches are also welcome to enjoy the game freely.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
this game is incredible. the concept, the execution, the character design, everything. yes we all love mr crawling. the linguistic features of this game is what initially drew me towards it and i was not disappointed at all. the added horror concept of not fully understanding what’s going on and it being fully up to you to understand the context makes it that much eerier. i was so interested in this game i sat down and boom 6 hours passed playing it 😭😭 definitely recommend but if ur scared of things like momo the character design might not be for you (i am scared of momo and mr scarletella’s design actually freaked me out a little)
I love this game
played for five hours straight on the day i bought it and didnt even realize. super addicting and i love the concept of learning the characters while completing the story lines! overall 10/10!!!
such a good game recommend 100%
Heck yes. Nothing like having a murderous ghost dude as your BF. Totes recommend.
i love the idea of a horror game where you have to learn the language of the entities, i've never seen another game with this before. i think the user interface is cool and i'm enjoying it quite a bit
