About this game
Rin lives alone with her cat Bonya and goes live at night under the alias Alice. As she explores the apartment and traces of the past, she must discover who demands an answer to the question “Tell Me Why?”—and whether the truth is worth seeking.
Features
• A story-driven first-person psychological horror set entirely within one apartment.
• Examine objects and memories that reveal Rin’s past.
• The personas of Rin and Alice offer different reactions and actions.
• Escalating danger: the longer you remain Alice, the more terrifying the apartment becomes.
• Darkness and stress: light protects Rin, but overloading the power grid plunges the apartment into darkness.
• Nighttime streams, daily tasks, shopping, and caring for Bonya—all woven into the story.
