i'm going to be going to japan for 4 weeks starting next month, and even though i don't play computer games anymore, i wanted to share a game that is set in the tokyo subway that looks interesting to me. it's not a typical game, doesn't take long to beat, requires focus and attention to detail, and is deceptively challenging.
one theme of the game is the concept of liminal spaces, a concept i find visually fascinating. you can explore more liminal space photography here – this website also happens to be my favorite photography website.
the game was originally designed for windows on steam, but they released an iPhone and iPad version. if the app version sucks, you can always play it on macOS via parallels desktop. instructions for installing windows with parallels can be found here. if you have an apple silicon mac (m1/m2/m3/m4/m5 chip), you can download the arm-based iso here without paying for a license. otherwise, get the x64-based iso here.
it also looks like it's being made into a movie.
here's a trailer of the gameplay 👻
