There’s no longer a place for me in the town where I was born and raised
In this game, you explore a transformed hometown that has been taken over by a robot attack—a place where neighbors have been digitized and the ghosts of androids roam.To settle the score with the past, players take up a sledgehammer and destroy fragments of their memories—including childhood recollections—as they confront their own history.

body is a source of pain and impure bodily fluids. Now that I’ve shed my bones and no longer feel hunger, I can say this: I’m happier now than ever before.
