About


“Onii-chan, you really are a lonely person.”
“Did you lose faith in me?”
“No. I love you, onii-chan.”
Unable to bear the ugliness of the world and terrified of other people, the protagonist develops the ability to read minds.
He shuts himself away and submits a light novel he wrote, which unexpectedly wins a newcomer’s award. But the jealousy and envy that follow only deepen his distrust of the few human relationships he still has. Those around him hurt his fragile heart without even realizing it.
His only remaining comfort is his younger sister, who lives with him.
Clinging to each other just to stay alive, the two sink night after night into a twisted, unhealthy codependency.
―I keep living alone, talking about my own prejudices and cursing the world. Day after day.
I ripped off Dostoevsky, half-assed it into something modern, and turned it into a light-novels.
I mean, I tried. In my own stupid way.
Had the heroines talk about “existentialism” like it was supposed to mean something.
The gameplay is an old-school, straight-up classic visual novel. The text fills the entire screen, so read as much as you want—or just right-click to hide it and enjoy the art. That’s it. Read, click, and vibe.
Live through a gloomy, suffocating real world through an overly sensitive protagonist… then come home and savor the only happiness left in his life: the time he spends with his little sister, his one true comfort.
As the friction with the people around you keeps piling up, there’ll be moments when their petty thoughts make you feel actual murderous rage. And in those moments, you can use your mind-reading ability to drive them to suicide.
That snide bastard. That arrogant asshole. Hit them right where it hurts—right in the deep-seated insecurities they never want anyone to see—and take them out. It’s not like you’re killing them with your own hands, so you won’t get caught. The ones truly at fault are the tasteless, mindless conformists who do nothing but obey society without a shred of aesthetic sense.
…But is that really okay?
What is happiness, anyway?
And in the end—what kind of future will the protagonist and his sister walk into?
Witness it with your own eyes.

首先,这不是一款常规的妹系作品。 如果你是被封面可爱的白毛妹妹吸引而来,以为能体验一场温馨的兄妹日常,那恐怕要失望了。许多朋友就是被这“骗”进来,结果却发现是个阴郁的汉子在大吐苦水。本作基调阴郁,带点“毒电波”式的狂气与血腥,接受不了的朋友建议绕道,以免做噩梦。 如果你对创作者有所了解,想必听说过《主播女孩重度依赖》。其凭借丰富的视听体验和诡异的表达曾小火一把,而这部新作则彻底撕开了美少女的皮囊,更多采用纯粹的文字铺陈。它将主角混乱又纠结的思维赤裸裸地摆在玩家面前,比前作显得更加狂气且有毒。 不过,每个角色都有贴合性格的专属音乐,画框也会随情节发展变化等等,也都是叙事的一部分。本作的视听表现依然可圈可点。 男主莲也是个敏感且极度厌世的人,这份敏感却给他带来了一个诅咒般的“天赋”,读心术。他人心底潜藏的阴暗、嫉妒、自私与欲望,在他眼中无所遁形。因此,他眼中的世界不过是动物性的丛林,每个人都是被欲望驱使的皮囊。他表面奉承,内心却与全世界为敌,无法与任何灵魂真正靠近。 其大段大段的苦水,充斥着对他人、对社会的冷眼审视。莲也剖析、批判、讽刺着靠近他的每一个人和事物,而作品有毒的地方在于——他说的似乎又没错。就像一个站在高处,敢于撕开伪装的边缘人,把那些你平时不敢面对的阴暗面,赤裸裸地推到你面前。于是你不可避免地被他带着走,“确实是这样”的念头会一次次闪过。 但所谓“读心”,说到底也不过是他自我投射的滤镜。学长只是自尊心强,他解读为虚荣;妹子用身体换取金钱,他定性为诚实的动物性。敏锐是真的,偏颇也是真的。 人从来都是复杂的多面体。可莲也选择高高在上地观察、贴标签,然后转身躲进自己的壳里。 他把所有精力都投入写作。他写的是一个“现代圆形监狱”——每个人都在注视别人,同时也在被注视。小说里的角色被困在玻璃牢房里,一举一动都被评判,永远无法逃脱。而这正是他眼中的真实世界。他用窥视着他人,同时确信自己也在被审视。写作对他而言,就是把活着的窒息感复刻成文字,再躲在文字后面喘息。而当这部关于“被注视之恐惧”的小说爆火后,他自己也被推到了聚光灯下。 有人指责他是杀人犯,认为每位角色的死亡都源于他的引导。我不这么看。学长的死,是因为他想成为作家却扛不住恶评;黄毛死于仇杀,莲也确实给了不正常的建议,但下决定的终究是他自己;毛虫无法忍受理想与现实的落差,宁愿毁灭也不愿庸碌一生;父母的积怨早已埋下,缺的只是一根导火索;而妹子,早就被背德与自卑压垮,只等一个终结。 每个角色再找莲也之前,其实早已做出了选择,只是缺乏一个契机或是推手。 那么莲也在这其中扮演了什么?他不过是个缩在角落的小人物,却因作品爆火被推到聚光灯下,于是被嫉妒、被攀附、被比较、被依赖。他连自己的内耗都处理不完,只能敷衍、逃避,拒绝一切深刻的情感联结,只是静静等待死亡与腐烂。 可他的内心,其实在呼救。就像他无法对任何人关闭读心术,唯独对妹妹失效,那是因为他潜意识里在渴望一个不用勾心斗角、能被无条件包容的归宿。这种无法控制的“失控”,恰恰暴露了他最深层的需求。 游戏有三个结局。普通结局里,所有与他有交集的人非死即伤,世界归于冰冷。但这部黑暗之作却保留了另外两条出路:真结局中,莲也与妹妹私奔,在花田里治愈彼此,选择永远相信对方;黄毛好结局里,黄毛混得风生水起,骑着摩托带他满世界飞驰。或许,莲也自己也一直在等一个人,来把他拽出深渊吧。 游戏没有成就,选项不多所以cg还算好收集,就是有几个随机cg要稍微刷一下。 [code] 点击关注[url= https://store.steampowered.com/curator/26214428] 電玩狂熱愛好者 [/url] ,以获取更多游戏评测、资讯、攻略 [/code]

很多感想,但是看评价褒贬不一,所以就言简意赅的概括一下。 妹元素较少,冲着妹来的可以算了。 除了是nyalra写的以外没有很多能吸引人的点。 只推荐nyalra孝子玩,但是我是nyalra考我先玩了
这啥子男主🤙🤙🤙
did not expect yaoi from this game jokes aside though I do want to warn anyone going into this that the start is incredibly slow and it gets more interesting later on. The first half of the game made me pretty sure I was gonna end up leaving a negative review even though I had high hopes for this as a huge fan of NSO (both the game and the anime) but I did end up liking it after finishing it. My only note is don't go into this expecting a linear story based game focused on the protagonist's relationship with his sister. It's mostly a look into the protagonist's mind with some focus on his sister but also focus on some other relationships of his.
I finished the game yesterday and found it quite the unique experience! The storyline was unexpected, in a way that it felt unconventional to the typical visual-novel. I admit I wasn't sure where the story was headed at one point, but the closer I was from the ending, I got the feeling this wasn't exactly the point of the game. In fact, one of its strongests points imo is the prose that gives this impression of intimacy since the writing feels more like a "casual conversation" with the reader, which felt refreshing! The theme concept was amazing and while I wished it could have been explored a little more in depth, I still feel satisfied with how it turned out. However, it's a shame Sahana's role didn't turn out to be as big as the trailer made it sound like. Most of the characters (aside the protagonist who was well fleshed out) could have beneficied of more depth, because they had such a great potential! I especially loved Botan and Dokudami's routes! I hope the developpers will continue to make more projects like this one because the fact they've got this distinguisable offbeat style is exactly what gives so much charm to this game! Besides, it's a funny coincidence the protagonist reminded me a lot of someone very dear to me ^^) Would def recommand!
ギャラリー全解放までプレイしました。 はじめに言っておくと、この作品は絶対に万人受けしないです。人を選ぶ作品だと思います。 だからこそ、刺さる人には本当に深く刺さる作品です。 少なくとも自分にとっては、いまこの作品を遊べて本当に良かったです。 全体的ににゃるらさんらしさ全開で、自分の中のモヤモヤした気持ちが救われるような、本当に素晴らしいゲームでした。 P.S.妹が本当に純粋でかわいい……!
I actually ended up liking this game. It's pretentious and the protagonist wallows in his own pity and fear...but this isn't something new for a denpa game. I love stories with unreliable narration, and I related a scary amount to the protag, so on a personal level I enjoy this story. It is, of course, flawed: the game being extremely short works against its favor. The marketing for the game really made it seem like Sahana would've been a bigger part. The true ending contains more of her, though, and if it weren't for that end I would've given this a lower rating. Since this was shadow work for Nyalra, I hope to see that his next game improves upon this one's flaws. My conclusion is if you're willing to put yourself in the shoes of a highly paranoid man as he spirals, this is a worthy read.
