I tried playing the free game 'takibi.' That reincarnates on a bonfire and listens to the stories of animals.

As anthropological studies have shown that '

stories were born from bonfires,' various stories have been gathered near bonfires since ancient times. When you play the visual novel game ' takibi. ' That you can play from your browser for free, you can experience a mysterious drama drawn with a warm touch while listening to the words of the animals gathered near you as a warm bonfire . I can do it.

When you access the above page with a browser, the following will be displayed, so press 'Run game' to start playing. This work is a game created for PC browsers using Unity, and it was possible to play it on any of Chrome, Firefox, Edge on PC, but it can be played on Chrome browser on Android smartphones and Safari browser on iPhone. I could not do it.

When the game starts, the bonfire of the player will be played. There is no audio.

The conversation of birds gathering around the bonfire has also begun. The conversation will proceed automatically without any special operations such as clicking.

The player's alter ego, the bonfire, recognizes the birds in conversation as 'something.' Players may listen to the voice of 'something' ...

You can let go of your consciousness without asking.

Now that the options are displayed, let's click 'Let's go' this time.

Then the bonfire went out and the birds went away. There is no indication such as 'Game over' and no return to the opening screen, leaving a unique awkwardness as if you were watching the extinguished fire forever.

So, reload the screen and restart. This time, I selected 'Keep the consciousness strong.'

Then, the fire became stronger.

The warmth of the bonfire with increased fire seems to have invited the birds to sleep.

The migratory bird on the left fell asleep, causing silence and nothing to do, but the penguins on the right began to recollect.

The penguins seem to be traveling in search of 'the person who has reached the memory of the premise.'

Shortly after, the fire went out, leaving only the unburned residue of the bonfire.

I was worried about the 'memory of the premise', so I decided not to select either one this time and continue to listen to the conversation of the birds.

Then the migratory bird began to talk about his 'memory of premise'.

After talking about it, the bonfire went out, but when I started the game again, an animal like a fox was sitting by the bonfire. If you are interested in the story of various animals spinning while quietly exchanging words, please play it directly.

'Takibi.' Is the work of game developer
