Junio de 1983 trae el calor del verano temprano a Hinamizawa, un pueblo rural japonés con menos de dos mil habitantes. Las cigarras zumban de día, las higurashi claman de noche, mientras muertes y desapariciones anuales atormentan a la comunidad. Estos sucesos se remontan a la resistencia local contra un proyecto de presa cancelado, donde un asesinato encubierto de la época de construcción se repite sin cesar.
Este adventure explora la frontera entre conspiración, azar y maldición en medio de presencias cambiantes: ausentes que deberían estar presentes, intrusos donde no los hay, vivos que amanece muertos. No hay forma de detener la tragedia creciente, pero la persistencia perdura. Los fans de las aventuras narrativas atraídos por destinos inescapables encontrarán aquí su esencia.
June, 1983.
The summer heat has arrived earlier than it does most years.
By day there are cicadas, and by night, the higurashi.
Hinamizawa, a small village in the Japanese countryside.
While there are fewer than two thousand people there, every year, 'something' happens.
For the past 4 years, someone has died, and someone else has gone missing.
This series of deaths and disappearances is connected to the local resistance against a now-abandoned dam construction project.
A murder during the construction, covered up by the local authorities, is being re-enacted year after year.
Is it a conspiracy? A coincidence? Or perhaps a curse?
Someone who was supposed to be there... isn't.
Someone who wasn't supposed to be there... is.
Someone who was alive last night is now dead, and someone who is here right now isn't alive.
There is no way to avert this tragedy. There is no choice but to give up trying.
But even so... please don't give up.
