About 軍艦島探訪記 ある写真家の記録 "Visiting Battleship Island: A Photographer's Chronicle"
Hashima Island, also known as Gunkanjima, is a small coal mining island located in Nagasaki, Japan. Its appearance, with numerous high-rise apartment buildings, resembles the battleship Tosa, which is why it is also called "Battleship Island."
Gunkanjima thrived as a coal mining city with cutting-edge urban functions, including elementary and junior high schools, an underground department store, a movie theater, restaurants, a pachinko parlor, and a hospital. However, due to the national energy policy shift, the mine was closed in 1974, and all the islanders left the island.
Today, its unique, retro landscape captivates many Japanese people. In 2015, it was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
X days have passed since people left Gunkanjima... All the scenery has decayed and transformed. And you, a photographer, have visited this island to immortalize its ephemeral scenery.
Create your own original Gunkanjima photo album with the photo mode album feature.
As a former resident, you can enter all the buildings and floors.
Enjoy the changes in time from morning to night, and specify any time you like.
Enjoy changes in weather, and specify any weather you like.

[b]The good[/b] - Interesting concept: walking around an abandoned island as a photographer. - The camera function is by far the best part of this game. The ability to apply a wide range of parameters to each photo (filters, focal length, f stops, frames, colour and contrast etc.) is where the value is right now. - Changeable lighting and weather states. - The navigation map and its teleport function. [b]The bad[/b] My first two points are matters of ethics. The latter remarks concern game play. - I think the developers need to mention the historical controversy surrounding Hashima Island as a site of alleged forced labour during wartime. They do not need to take sides on this issue, but since Hashima is presented as an historical site in the game, and the main purpose of the game is to "tour" this site, then at the very least, users need to be alerted to the fact that there is a sensitive discussion about the island's modern history. Perhaps an "about" section could be created in the game's menu with references to impartial information about the history of the island. - I also think the developers need to make it clear that the island depicted in the game has been reconstructe…3 found this helpful
