Missing Children 行方不明 - Creepy Japanese Horror Game Where You Search For 3 Missing Kids (2 Endings) Available On Steam Here: store.steampowered.com/app/13...
I actually have a theory about that. Horror needs to be "bad" to a certain degree, because overproduced Horror clearly is made to scare you and thus loses impact. It takes the wonder out of the equation.
This Dev (Chilla’s Art) has made some of the highest quality and most legitimately scary games in recent history. I’m personally curious to see if this dev’s going to release some kind of magnum opus game that changes the face of horror, similar to how games like Slender, Amnesia or Outlast did.
@woooudo those games might be stupid but that wasn't what he said. "Changed the face of horror games" was his words. I think Slender is a horrible game, but everyone tried to clone it thereafter. Those games took the genre in a new direction.
@woooudo I never liked Amnesia either, but it was hugely successful and a lot of people did. It was the epitome of all atmosphere and no gameplay, and back when it came out that was more of a novelty. Since then such games are a dime a dozen. But the problem with being a trendsetter is you often get retroactively lumped in with the trend.
I find this game to be really bittersweet. Even if you fail, which is a reality for many people, you can still stand up and not lose hope. I also love how the dev added so many supernatural elements (the dog one was my favorite hahah) Lovely game. Had a lot of scary and psychological horror elements which I really, really love. Great Job to the dev 💖
Just a typical media example of Japanese using English words to look cool, yet not quite knowing the words. Lol. Honestly, it makes it feel more like Japan, which is fine by me.
I cant imagine if it's me who accidentally run into a dog shifting into jinmenken like that...... i may immediately faint on spot, or at least be paralyzed due to maximum shock....... 🥶🥶 i applaud the protagonist could be that calm as if nothing happened and just continued her investigation.... 😮 unbelievable 😮😮
From the lore i've seen (from other game) That yokai only appears at night just to scared people then run away, but there is also another one that killing people.... But yeah it might be still scary looking thing you saw at night 😂
@@neppurushadowheart3301 😨 only to scare people away or not, it's still a bad luck if you happen to encounter one......their image will keep haunting you who knows for how long... much much better not to go out at night, whenever possible... lol
@@planescaped jinmenken is only an urban legend, of course its existence is not proven yet, fren, so take it easy. But, if someone got drunk by any chance, they might start seeing dog as jinmenken tho, who knows right? Supernatural things are as real as you believe them to be, so be open to all possibilities 'kay? 😉
Thank you Alpha Beta Gamer for not putting commentary in these videos. It makes things more better and peaceful. Hearing someone screaming or talking through certain parts is annoying as hell. So thank you for that. I appreciate it. Oh and this game reminds me of SIREN. I love that damn game
The girls' backstory are very sad. Mitsuki had a overprotective mother who doesn't like her boyfriend so she start making fake letters in order to have them break up, and it hurts her heart. Akiko's parents probably abandoned her and her sister. And Kanae run away becuase she accidentally heard her parents argue about her being unwanted child.
I don’t think it’s a mistranslation. I think it’s just a joke that the old man is in such a strange situation of working poorly for a chore he’s severely underpaid for.
How is she gonna be able to explain all this to the police? "Okay, so first I gave the snacks to the random kid and she gave me the dog food, and THEN the dog dug up a box with a note in it--honestly, this is pretty standard investigation stuff..."
So what was the deal with the offering part and the disappearing grandma? Also what was the big round thing that pushes you into the water and was sitting next to the kids? Is that something from Japanese mythology?
don't have a clue about the pinwheels or the grandma, however i think the big round thing was the protagonist's son, or at least his soul? perhaps he's punising his mom for failing in helping people yet again
I love these games, hope the dev keeps making new stuff. The creepy real stretched faces are such a cool trademark. The super market one is by far my favorite so far.
This was interesting but feels like something is missing. So much weirdness, those... "people" in the park, the non-grandma... I guess I was expecting the missing kids to have a more supernatural reasoning behind it.
22:29 So I used Google Translate and it said: "Come on later, Seiyo Haro." I think it was trying to say, "Come by later, say hello!" but I'm not sure... 40:03 Were you supposed to put the snacks on the altar?
I think I'm missing something 😅 in the second ending to the left of the girls, there's a body in a trash bag. Who is that meant to be? I feel like its just glossed over in the text
This game’s awesome, though I do think there are some things that could be worked on a little more. For one, the tasks that you have to do for the characters are weirdly set up, it doesn’t feel natural. I think that the reason for this is because the dialogue in itself is a bit janky. It was hard to immerse myself in the game :(
I seriously thought this was some supernatural horror stuff because of the of those radios or recordings appearing in each child's house. And the grandma they never explained her why was she there (Not sure if im stupidly slow or the game was just all over the place) either way it was a nice game.
Also the clues were all over the place, that one girl being bullied hence the bag with graffiti, the parents fighting in a diary and of course the abusive(?) mother who loathes the idea of her daughter being with another guy.
