Hashihime of the Old Book Town

About the game

A closer look.

Your dream had always been to become an author, and while you made it to Tokyo with your friends, you've failed to get into University. Yet getting lost in the fantasies and the stories you weave has left you ousted from your boarding house and relegated to manning an old used book store. That dull, monotonous life seemed like it might go on forever, but one day your closest friend turns up dead. Police have ruled it suicide, but you're convinced it was murder. As you scramble to uncover the truth, a step through a puddle sends you three days back in time. What is the truth? And what's just another fantasy in your head? Can you save your friends from their fate? Enjoy a tale set in the age of Japan's most prominent and tumultuous literary movements. The characters of your stories come to life in your eyes as well, influencing you too. Enjoy well over a hundred CGs bringing life to both psychedelic and somber moments.
