Clues in conversation
When players enter the story, they become themselves in front of the screen. The characters hope to build relationships, but the very interactions themselves provide clues: the people mentioned in casual conversation, unfinished words, and differing attitudes all contribute to their situations. The official team will understand what happened and think about how to respond, making it an important part of reading.
Four modes of communication
Nezumi likes to talk to friends and is willing to share things she likes; Sakana remains wary of the player, worried that they might harm others. Acryl cares about everyone and eases their concerns with a relaxed attitude. Satura is not very talkative, but when players visit, they carefully prepare drinks, using actions to replace feelings that are hard to express.
The boundary referred to by the title
The official introduction lists multiple meanings of Ghost, including ghosts, lingering traces, ghosting, and people who should be present but are absent. Therefore, the relationship between characters and players is not just about whether they exist, but also about how they are seen, remembered, and treated. These meanings in the title provide clues for reading the conversation, while specific events still need to be gradually understood through the plot.
Original sound and character interaction
The original soundtrack includes 14 tracks such as Our Room, Mutual Reference, and For the GHOSTs, offering two audio formats. effe and uytrere jointly signed the entire album, and the public catalog does not assign an author to each song; Drinks and visits in character dialogues are Satura's ways of expressing emotions.
