Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.

Beautiful, heartbreaking, and full of otherworldly dread, this game is a masterpiece in survival horror. Of all the games that chased the glory of the original Silent Hill, Detention is the greatest that kept to its own style while capturing that wonderfully horrific world of personal grief.
a beautiful, tragic game <3
I'm from Taiwan. I've seen the movie, done multiple research about The White Terror. This game still ruined me when I finally decided to play.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 16: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

『返校』 国民党によって戒厳令が敷かれた1960年代の台湾を舞台にしたホラー。誰もいなくなった学校をさまよったり、怪異に襲われたりする。 一方で、いち学生からみた家族や政治、そしてその中で複雑に揺れ動く心の苦悩を色濃く描いている。当時の台湾の生々しさを肌に感じられる。 ラストは泣いた。
di luar ekspektasi gua. bagus storynya. ga boring gameplaynya.
臉上塗太白粉
This is a good story! The gameplay is a fairly easy point and click adventure, but the presentation is very good. The half historical and mythological setting is really cool, and 1960s Taiwan is not a setting I usually get to explore in a video game.
Excelente juego ! Es corto, intrigante con un par de sustos bien puestos. Y la historia te rompe el corazón.
분위기만으로 무서운 분위기를 조성하는 좋은 공포게임. 제작자가 하고 싶은 말도 스토리에 적절히 녹여냈습니다. 다만, 마우스만으로 모든 조작을 하다 보니 오른손이 아픕니다
几年前观看了实况最近出来了所以补票,我心中的类型天花板,充满悲伤又令人震撼的一款...重温还是很喜欢[spoiler]我是如此弱小,但你曾说我可握笔如枪[spoiler]
