About
USSR, 1986. When Ira Grachevskaya goes missing in the closed city of Vorkuta-5, not a soul seems to be concerned – except for the quiet outcast Asya Shubina, that is. Uncover the mystery behind Ira’s disappearance, transmit your radio signal to the universe and learn why a bird flies past the window.
Meet the cast.

A problem child and a truant, Ira doesn't have the best reputation. Her standoffish demeanor makes her difficult to talk to, especially for someone as meek as you. There is a rumour she's been meeting with an older man.

Marina's carefree personality makes her quite popular among her classmates. Adults don't seem to like her very much, probably due to poor grades. Despite the girl's outgoing nature, her worldview is rather cynical.

A boy with an unpleasant sense of humour. Likes picking on people weaker than him, namely you. His family has been a little out of it the past few weeks.

You. Not worth writing about.
Z.A.T.O. is a linear visual novel with roughly 7-8 hours of playtime. There are no choices. The ending is predetermined. Sit back and enjoy your time in a town that doesn't exist.
DISCLAIMER: the game contains strong language, loud noises and flickering images.

Крутая вроде игра. Но я когда играла забывала сохраняться и вдруг отключили свет и включают через 5 секунд ну а я ведь ленивая падла приходиться идти смотреть пересказ. Не буду ведь диалоги скипать до тех пор где я остановилась а я играла 5 часов без сохранения :/
i'm not sure i can describe the comfort this brings me. Reading far too late at night, half asleep, just this story and me. i forget about everything else and its just this.

love it
风格强烈、剧情比较细碎、内心戏的描写极度写实。 这部免费游戏道出了我以前不断思考过的心理,同时还拥有着很不错的科幻设定。谢谢你,遇到你真好。 爱自己,也爱全世界。
这种质量的视觉小说竟然是免费的
I love you. I love you. I love you.
明明是免费游戏,却有那么高的质量,也太犯规了吧! 剧情文本和人物塑造都相当优秀,结束后意犹未尽,后劲有点大... 总之非常喜欢这部作品!我大概永远不会忘了你吧
