This is a story-focused horror walking simulator, with some part-time job simulation elements depending on the scene, as well as very low-difficulty action scenes. The core design is a simple and accessible adventure in which you walk around, explore, and progress by triggering flags through conversations and events.
The expected playtime is around two hours. Compared to the previous title, "Shoyu Ramen FOREVER," the overall length has been reduced slightly in pursuit of a cleaner and more concise aftertaste.
Compared to the previous game, this one has slightly more horror and slightly less conversation, resulting in a somewhat different balance.
Synopsis
Hajime is a 27-year-old man in a band, at an age when he is beginning to think seriously about various things in life.
At the recommendation of a city office employee, he starts a part-time job at a pizza shop that pays unusually well for reasons of its own.
A one-person shift from the very beginning.
A girl who is supposedly his senior, yet calls herself his junior.
An outrageous manager.
A flood of orders from dangerous customers.
And worst of all, the delivery destinations are "liminal spaces".
On top of that, there are rumors that the shop is cursed. Serious paranormal phenomena occur as well.
It is a story set in the near future, in a society where liminal spaces are used as infinite land.
All of these mysteries are hidden within the cryptic phrase "E2T8P6".
Game Features
A simple adventure format in which you walk, explore, and progress through conversations and events
A surprisingly serious story built on an absurd premise, with moments of lighter humor woven in
A relatively conversation-heavy experience that depicts the relationships and backgrounds of the characters, with slightly improved pacing compared to the previous title. Readings are provided, so even players who are not comfortable with kanji can follow along
Compared to the previous title, the difficulty of the minigame-like elements has been greatly reduced. It should no longer be possible to get stuck and be unable to progress
Note: While this title is somewhat smaller in volume than the previous title, "Shoyu Ramen FOREVER," that earlier game was offered at a special introductory price as a debut work, so the price of this title remains unchanged.
