If something unusual happens, return to the opposite passage! A mysterious respect-based escape game from the subway station to the exit "Line 2 | Nibansen"
Players navigate through the meticulously designed subway station, taking in the realistic details and ambient background sounds. This creates a strong sense of immersion as players explore the endlessly repeating Line 2.
A key aspect of the gameplay is the search for "abnormalities" within the station. Players must keep a keen eye out for any unusual phenomena and immediately turn back towards the opposite exit upon detecting an abnormality. This adds an element of suspense and urgency to the experience.
The game incorporates a unique "respect-based" mechanic, where players are expected to give up their seats to specific passengers, such as the elderly, those uncomfortable with fear, and those with infants. This gameplay element encourages players to consider the needs of others, adding a layer of nuance and social awareness to the encounter.
While the game is primarily a walking simulator, it also features moments of puzzle-solving and mild horror. Players may encounter various obstacles or challenges that they must overcome, as well as tense situations, like when the lights turn off and a monster appears. These gameplay moments provide an extra layer of excitement and tension.
After completing the game, players can unlock additional features, such as a teleporter that simplifies movement between the two ends of the subway station. Additionally, players can turn off the "No Anomalies" setting, allowing them to search for more of the game's hidden abnormalities. These post-completion features encourage players to revisit the game and explore it in different ways, enhancing the overall replayability.
