■Steam version also updated & constant price reduction
We have updated the Steam version free of charge to reflect the changes made during porting.
Additionally, in order to unify the selling price across all platforms, we have reduced the price from 1010 yen to 700 yen.
■Implemented NDC (Japan Decimal Classification) order sorting We have implemented NDC sorting as requested by real librarians. In addition to arranging materials in order of call number, they are also divided into tabs for each category. For individual call numbers, please touch the title and check the bibliography.
All 260 fictitious book materials have dedicated images and
bibliography (detailed information).
■Story
This is a librarian experience adventure game where the player becomes a new employee at the “City Kakureza Library” and performs lending duties at the counter.
The story branches when the user selects the desired book from a total of 260 books. Multiple endings including multiple bad endings. You will be cleared if you successfully complete the one month trial period.
■260 fictitious books
All books that users bring to the counter are recorded in the search machine, and information on 260 non-existent books can be viewed. There are also trends in works by author and publisher, etc. You can also enjoy it as a fictional book gallery.
■Can change the fate of the user
Depending on the player’s choices, the users who visit the library, the titles of the books they borrow, and the content of their conversations will change.
■Endless Reference
This is a bonus mode that has nothing to do with the main story. Users with randomly generated appearances will continually contact you, so choose the correct material.
This mode was previously only available in the Japanese version, but is now also available in the English version.
