The test runs until November 12 with an estimated one hour of playtime. Players move point-and-click style through 360-degree panoramic backgrounds. The protagonist, a fourth-year university student, foresees his death in 10 days on Kaito Island and gains the ability to enter other people's minds. No release date is set.","whyItMatters":"The test build supports only English and Chinese, with Japanese display planned for the full version, so this Steam window reads on audiences outside the eventual Japanese release while the release date stays undecided.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eEvery use of the protagonist\u0026#39;s mental interference carries a price.
