In a traditional FMV title your character would restart from a bad ending none the wiser, with the player having to catch back up to where they last died and having to navigate there with knowledge of the future. Kodaka is well known for taking established genres and innovating on how they tell their stories, and the same can be said about this game. It’s in a perfect sweet spot between mediums, and it uses the FMV genre to its advantage to tell the story it had in mind. Death Come True would not work as well as just a normal movie, and it wouldn’t have as much charm if it was just presented with a normal anime art style like you’d find from a normal visual novel. The pacing is snappy like a film, but the interactivity that comes from it being a game offers a level of immersion that surpasses film. I can’t get into too much more detail because the game’s plot is the highlight of the game, but I can say that I enjoyed where it went. Makoto decides to use this strange power to solve the mystery of what’s going on and who he really is. He remembers everything about what just happened, and every time he dies he has the ability to travel back in time to this moment. Just a traditional bad end in an FMV game, right? When the player hits continue Makoto wakes up in his bed again, but something feels different. He struggles to escape before being shot to death, and with his consciousness fading the player receives a game over screen to start again. With no other options at his disposal he lets him in, only to be apprehended when the officer sees on the TV that Makoto is the killer they have been looking for. Panicking, he runs out of the bedroom to find a police officer at his door.
#Death come true ending serial
He gets a call from the front desk, notices on the TV that he’s apparently a wanted serial killer, and finds a tied up woman in the bathroom.
The protagonist of this interactive film is Makoto Karaki, an amnesiac young man who wakes up in a mysterious hotel room.
