Livestream 2: Escape from Togaezuka Happy Place

There's no nudity, just some fan service in a really boring and slow horror game. Controls are also very weirdly mapped and it doesn't give you an option to change it

[h3]Nice and fairly short horror VN with psychological and supernatural aspects, high quality L2D and great voice acting. Oh, and it comes with a horror adventure game, too![/h3] Livestream 2 is the sequel to Livestream: Escape from Hotel Izanami. The two are loosely connected, so you can play whichever you like; they are both great games! The sequel preserves the core experience and expands it with the neat livestreaming / character switching mechanic. That said, Livestream 2 feels like a new franchise entry, offering a completely new story with the same base game. Don't expect any crazy improvements, the original did not leave anything to be desired, anyway. Both games are polished. The formula remains mostly unchanged. The original was focused more on the horror aspect, with an intricate villain background and a progressively more eerie atmosphere as you got closer to the roots of the mystery. The sequel is focused more on the three characters, Himari, Aina and Miyabi.

The gameplay is built around a side-scrolling format that emphasizes movement, timing, and environmental awareness rather than combat. Players guide multiple characters through different sections of the mall, gradually piecing together a path to escape while avoiding danger. The decision to use multiple protagonists adds variety to the pacing, as each character’s situation unfolds separately but contributes to the overall progression. This structure keeps the experience from feeling overly linear, even though the path forward is still carefully controlled. Stealth and evasion f…

Can't wait for #3

Delightful, as expected of Qureate~ ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡ Please make Livestream 3!

My favourite horror game series. Hopes are high for a third game. I really like the improvements in this game from the first game but there are still things I would like to get changed. I find it espacially a little bit weird that you have to get caught by the mascot to get all endings. This could be one of the things I would like to see changed.
