About this game
Do you believe in the existence of an afterlife? Jukai Maze is a sci-fi suspense visual novel where every choice sends the story down a completely different path. Branching routes twist and diverge with each decision you make. Explore multiple endings, piece together scattered clues, and uncover the deeper truth that lies beneath them all. “They say there’s a research institute at the foot of Mount Fuji studying the afterlife.” Intrigued by the half-believable rumor, Shiu invites the protagonist, Haryu Ryoushi, to explore the depths of Aokigahara. What was supposed to be a simple vlog shoot shifts the moment they step into the forest. As night falls and the mist thickens, they lose their sense of direction. Shiu vanishes without a trace, and Ryoushi is pulled into another “reality,” awakening inside a strange psychiatric hospital. Everyone inside mutters things that border on madness: “This place is a dream.” “This place is another planet.” “This place is the afterlife.” As the boundary between truth and illusion collapses, Ryoushi sinks deeper into the maze, and is soon entangled in a baffling murder case…… Fully voiced in JapaneseClear, elegantly structured storytellingExpressive and nuanced character portraitsCinematic visual presentation“Jukai Photo Mode” for freely exploring the sea of trees
