1bitHeart

Released: 8/28/2017

Welcome to 1bitHeart―the latest title from Alicemare and LiEat developer △○□× (Miwashiba). In this unique and endearing adventure game, take on the role of Nanashi, a lonely, agoraphobic boy, as you solve a slew of mysteries around town while also making friends. This is the story of a world in which pretty much everything is controlled and watched over by computer programs. One day, Nanashi―a young boy who has been cooped up in his room―meets a mysterious girl. “Let’s make some friends.” “OK!” Nanashi accepts the young girl’s sudden invitation without giving it much thought. At that very moment, some very strange things begin to occur in town... Detective Part (Story Mode) Gather information and topics by exploring the town and speaking with people to progress through the story. Conversation Part (Story Mode) Use the topics and info you’ve gathered to piece together conversations while progressing through the story. (The game ends when your HP reaches 0.) Free Mode (After clearing Story Mode) Talk and mingle with the residents of the town, make friends, and play mini games in Free Mode.
