About this game

"Message from Father" is an exploration-based story game set on an old computer left behind by a deceased father.

Players start up the PC left in their father's room and one by one open the photos, emails, notes, and locked folders stored there.

◆ Fragmentary Records Left on an Old Computer

The screen displays a nostalgic yet slightly unsettling PC desktop.

- Deleted photos
- Photo albums with mismatched dates
- Short, meaningful notes
- Disconnected emails

At first glance, each piece of data appears to be ordinary.

However, upon closer inspection,
a certain "sense of incongruity" gradually begins to build up.

◆ Solving Mysteries Connects Memories

In this game,
Unlocking puzzles and codes unlocks new information.

The arrangement of numbers, the way a photo is missing,
a casual sentence left in a note...

These are more than just puzzles; they are deeply connected to your father's memories and thoughts. As you discover each answer, the story's contours become a little clearer.

"Message from Father" doesn't offer many explanations.

Most of the story is designed to emerge naturally as the player sees, thinks, and feels.

What happened?
Why were records preserved, and why are they distorted?

The answers aren't always stated in clear words.

◆ A story that progresses quietly and ends quietly

There are no flashy productions or action.
BGM and narration are kept to a bare minimum.

Instead, the stillness of the screen and the weight of the words left behind
slowly seep into the player's heart.

At the ending,
the records traced up to this point come together,
and the meaning of "Message from Father" is quietly revealed.

◆ Recommended for:

・People who like story-driven games
・People who want to enjoy contemplation and lingering impressions
・People who are looking for a quiet, emotional game
・People who want a short, but memorable experience

This is not a story that forces answers on you.

It is a story for you to experience for yourself and feel for yourself.

Try opening your father's computer.
