YOU'VE BEEN WARNED

The game starts with Sayaka walking in the middle of the night towards her crush's apartment. She was surprised to have been invited so suddenly by him. As she walks, she wonders where his new apartment could be.

*Tip: This is how you get to the apartment complex:*

At the start of the game, walk straight and then turn right at the end of the street. Then, walk to the intersection (where a dead cat is lying in the middle of the intersection) and make a left. Continue walking straight and you will arrive at the apartment complex.

Upon arriving at the apartment complex, Sayaka recalls that her classmate lives in Apartment 104 and told her to meet him there. (His apartment is on the second floor, the first one after climbing up the stairs). Sayaka will knock on the apartment door, but her classmate isn't home. Since she doesn't want to wait outside for him, Sayaka tries to recall where he left the spare key. After thinking about it for a few seconds, she recalls that he left it underneath the lemon plant. (Which is next to his apartment door). Sayaka moves the potted plant, grabs the key, and enters the apartment. Upon entering it, she is quite surprised how good the apartment look. With a large kitchen, spacious living room, a giant queen bed, a massive bathroom with bath and washing machine, and much more! While exploring the place she notices a journal on the side of the bed and notices that seven pages of the journal are missing. Sayaka decides to go on a hunt in search for the missing pages.

**(\*Heads up: Some pages that are scattered around the area cannot be picked up until a certain page beforehand is picked up and read. Meaning that the pages must be picked up in chronological order.\*)**

Sayaka can find the first page through a hole that is in the kitchen wall. But because the hole is too small for her to reach in, she can grab a nearby hook lying next to the closet to fish the page out of the hole. She can also look through the hole and see the next-door apartment on the other side of the hole. After grabbing the page, she places it back into the journal and decides to read it:

"Moving is over at last. And today marks the first day living alone and also the first day writing this journal. I really look forward to the experience. I've always dreamed of it."
"I decided to move here because the rent is very cheap. I honestly can't believe that a broke student like me can afford such a nice room! Plus, it's really close to my school! How amazing is that?"
"I ate out with my parents today to celebrate the move and they were both laughing and just having a great time. Living alone is great and all, but man, I'm going to miss those faces.They told me that they're gonna be here for only a couple of days. They kept telling me how worried they are, but they're just overthinking."
"They don't have to worry about a thing. I'm gonna do just fine."

Sayaka can then find the second page within the bathroom, all she has to do is to drain the bathtub and the paper will be right there. However, since the page is wet, Sayaka will have to dry the paper first. Sayaka will notice a hairdryer on the bathroom and sink and uses it to dry the paper. After drying it, she will place it back in the diary and reads it:

"Today, I took the whole day just setting everything up in the room.What used to be a room with small luggage and a simple bed now became a room with a bunch of furniture and a whopping queen-size bed!"
"The previous tenant left everything, and the owner was too lazy to get rid of them."
"Dad seemed to like this house so badly, he said he'd like to stay a little longer.But as much as I appreciate their company, I'd like to live life already!The owner came to say hello today. He looked like he could use a little sleep though.What was wrong with him? He shooked my hand with a big smile on his face told me how grateful he was for someone to finally rent the room.But how he stopped smiling right when he let my hand go.That was way too late"
"Anyways, the new semester starts tomorrow.Gotta get ready."

The third page can be found from a crow. Upon leaving the apartment, head left and you will see a crow holding the third page within its mouth. But the crow won't let go of the paper. Sayaka can head downstairs to the street and grab either the fish in the trash area or grab the dead cat lying in the middle of the intersection. But as soon as Sayaka heads back in the direction of the apartment complex, a man is seen peering out through his apartment door (first floor, second door) and staring at Sayaka. But upon walking closer to him, he immediately shuts the door on her. Nonetheless, Sayaka goes back upstairs and gives the crow the fish/dead cat and it drops the third note on the railing. Sayaka then takes and it returns it to the diary. The note reads:

"Today, was the first day of the semester!""It's good to see my boys again!They wanted to come to see my new apartment, but I don'tknow...They better not fuck anything up!"
"Mashima-sensei is my homeroom teacher. I wonder what kind of teacher she is? I hope she's not mean like the previous one. That guy was an asshole."
"Another weird thing happened today. When I got out of theroom this morning some middle-aged ladies across the streetgathered and talked bad about this apartment.""Woman of that age like to gossip a lot. It's probably whatever."

The fourth page can be found in the mail room at the back of the apartment complex. However, upon looking through the window, Sayaka notices that a man is standing inside with a bag over his face, his hands behind his back and is staring blankly at a corner of the wall. Sayaka tries to get his attention by knocking, but he completely ignores her. So, she enters the room to see if she can try to help the man, only for the man to disappear! With no signs or trace of him ever being there in the first place. Sayaka looks around the place, and notices that talismans are placed all over the walls of the mail room. She also notices a foot ladder on the ground, along with an apartment memo, and the fourth page on the mailboxes. If Sayaka decides to read the apartment memo, she can learn more about the apartment complex. It reads:

- "This apartment cannot be demolished."
"I tried to call a contractor trying to destroy it, but for some reason, the phone line stops working.My mother suddenly becomes ill. I hope it isn't related."
- "The local priest will not come.""I tried asking other people to ask the priest. The priest got into an accident and died."
- "Talismans are useless.""I bought a box of talismans and stuck them on my walls, but they were all burned the next day. Whenever I put a talisman on a wall, the word "curse" will continue to appear in my head."
- "The apartment does not catch fire.""The building repels fire."
- "The apartment must continue to sell.""A resident will be chosen every month.The chosen one will be possessed in a week.And after the possession, the person completely disappears from this world and no one remembers athing about the person.I keep having nightmares, and a strange voice keeps telling me to "bring human".
"I can't sell the apartment."
"I can't let them hurt my family."
"Someone. PLEASE. HELP ME."

With this information in mind, it is revealed that the apartment complex is haunted, and nothing can be done to get rid of the apartment due to its curse. And that the landlord is required to sell an apartment to a tenant and that tenant will be sacrificed and possessed. Afterwards, the person will be wiped out of existence, and everyone will forget who that person was. The landlord is only doing so in order to protect his family as he keeps having visions of the demons harming them if he doesn't.

After grabbing the fourth page, Sayaka will head back to the apartment, but she will hear a squishing sound coming from the apartment. It was coming from the hole in the wall, which now has blood oozing out of it. If Sayaka decides to take a look, she notices that the next-door apartment is completely red, like it was drenched in blood. Sayaka then places the fourth page into the journal and reads it:

"I said hello to my fellow neighbors today. That's a polite thing to do, right?Always be nice to your neighbors, right mom?"
"But you know what mom? I don't think it works here... Because I just got the cold shoulders from them..."
"When I said good morning to the neighbor on the right, her juststared at me with his big eyes and without a word from hismouth, he shut the door on me."
"Even now, his big, cat-like eyes won't leave my head. Ah, Ishouldn't be too rude, I'll probably give it another go some other time.
"Anyways, today I saw a girl who looked just like the girl inShibakiBara 89 in my class! Her name's Mira and I'd like to getto know her! And from what I heard, she's single ready to mingle!"
"How lucky! I'm excited for tomorrow~"

The fifth page can be found in the apartment's bathroom. However, the door leading to it is locked. Luckily, the bathroom window is open from the outside so Sayaka can climb through it. But she can't reach it, so she decides to head back down to the mailroom to grab the foot ladder in order to climb through the bathroom window. After climbing through, Sayaka finds the page next to the sink and unlocks the door to put the page back into the journal. It reads:

"Mom came over to my room again.Ugh, I told her she doesn't have to come anymore."
"I think she had a fight with dad again. Her passive-aggressive attitude got to me, so I asked her how dad is doing. She refusedto talk about it and instead just...sat there quietly. I've neverseen her like this before. She would usually put a fake smile on her face after a fight. I would notice that. But it just wasn't likethat this time."
"An hour or so later she regained her usual positivity when sheasked me if I can invite my old-time friend Sayaka. She had thebiggest smile when I agreed it. Mom must be worried for me to live alone still. I only have Mira-chan in mind right now though!"
"Hm..."
"But that smile. Her eyes weren't smiling."

The sixth page can be found within the parked car. Upon closer inspection, Sayaka realizes that the car belongs to his crush's mom and wonders where she might be. The car is unfortunately locked so Sayaka must find a key in order to open it. She can find the key in the dead-end alley.

*(When you leave the apartment complex, walk to the left and you will find the key lying on the ground. If you're inside the apartment, head outside to the front of the apartment complex and turn left).*

With the key, Sayaka opens up the front passenger side door and finds the sixth page within the seat. But upon returning to the apartment, she notices that some of the items within the apartment are now in different places. From the mirror now placed next to the kitchen counter and the chairs that were next to the kitchen table are either toppled over or placed on top of the table. But she doesn't let this bother her and instead focuses on reading the next page within the journal:

"I was able to talk to Mira-chan today!"
"What. A. Great. Day!"
"Except for one thing.Mom was gone when I woke up this morning...Her car was stillparked here and it's odd for her to leave without notice. I hopedad picked her up or something because the car is still there."
"I invited Sayaka today and said she'd come tomorrow."
"I hope this makes her happy again."

The seventh and final page can be found inside the vending machines next to the apartment. However, Sayaka will need 100 yen in order to get the paper. Luckily, she can find some spare change around the property. Here are the locations of the coins:

* A ten-yen coin is located on the road at the start of the game. If you haven't collected it, and you're at the apartment complex. Go to the four-way intersection and make a right where the dead cat is, then make a left. The coin should be on the ground.
* A fifty-yen coin is located next to the garbage can where the vending machines are (apartment).
* A second ten-yen coin is located near the door where the man who was looking at you earlier after grabbing the fish/dead cat. (First floor apartment, second door).
* A third ten-yen coin is located on a dead-end path at the four-way intersection. If you're at the apartment complex, go to the intersection and make a left where the dead cat is. Upon closer inspection, Sayaka will notice a shadow of someone within the flickering light and a red umbrella. But the shadow will disappear when Sayaka gets too close to it. The figure will also scream as the lights go off. And when it goes back on, the figure is gone but the coin will now be on the ground.
* A fourth ten-yen coin is located inside the apartment, next to the wall where the hole is.
* The fifth and final ten-yen coin is located inside a neighboring apartment. Go to the back of the apartment complex and head to the left-most door. The door (despite being closed earlier) is now open. But when Sayako gets a better look by the door, she notices that a man is standing behind a small wall and is staring at her from inside the apartment. But upon entering the apartment, the lights turn off, and when it turns back on, the man is no longer there. But the coin will be sitting on the wall for Sayako to collect.

Once Sayaka finds all the coins, she can head back to the vending machine to get the last remaining paper. However, upon this point, the outcome of the game will be determined by the players' actions throughout the game. Because as soon as you read the last page, there is no going back... The last page reads:

is no escape"
"(I can't read the rest)"

## Endings

### Possessed (Bad Ending)

After Sayako finishes reading the seventh page, she decides to leave the apartment and will call her crush later. But when she tries to leave, the front door is now locked! Sayako tries to unlock it, but it won't budge. However, she notices that someone seems to be on the other side. Upon closes inspection, she discovers that there are three people standing outside. Her crush, her crush's mother...and her! When Sayako turns around, she sees her crush and his mom standing behind her with no eyes! Unfortunately, Sayako became the next victim to the apartment's curse, and is therefore possessed and wiped out of existence.
