Step Into the Stream and Uncover the Truth

Tsumimi Time is a game where you step in as a viewer and intervene in the livestreams of Tsumimi, a struggling idol streamer.

Tsumimi is striving to become a popular streamer so that Mashiro, her partner who suddenly disappeared, might find her.

The story unfolds over a roughly two-week day-and-night cycle.

In the mornings and afternoons, you follow clues by searching social media, fan sites, and maps based on the subtle irregularities you spot in the stream.

At night, you intervene in Tsumimi’s livestreams through Mega Chats (paid donation messages) and comments. Sometimes, a gift sent in the dead of night will return as an unexpected reaction in the next day’s stream.

As your investigation connects the scattered fragments, the dark history of the abandoned village where the streams take place—and the incidents that once occurred there—gradually come to light.

Your interventions, investigation, deductions, and final choice will change her fate.

Featuring brand-new original music written for the game by Kikuo, this is a psychological horror adventure built around livestream intervention, investigation, and deduction.

Where Is Mashiro, Your Missing Favorite Idol?

Tsumimi, of the idol unit Wataame Chainsaw, continues streaming in hopes of becoming famous enough for the missing Mashiro to find her.

As a viewer, you intervene in her streams—sometimes altering the course of events, sometimes picking up new information, always connecting the scattered fragments.

Your only leads are a village erased from the map and the faint irregularities caught on stream.

What awaits beyond them…?

Follow the Irregularities and Connect the Clues

Using the strange details caught in the stream as leads, you search social media, fan sites, and maps for information.

Each time you uncover and connect an overlooked fragment, the hidden truth becomes a little clearer.

At Night, Step Into the Stream

Intervene in Tsumimi’s livestreams through Mega Chats and comments.

How far will you push her? What will you prioritize?

A single word from you can change her reactions, the information that becomes visible, and what happens next.

Your choices shape the mood of the stream—and what begins to reveal itself.

Sometimes, the gifts you send will trigger an unexpected response in the next day’s stream.

Connect the Fragments and Deduce the Truth

The information you gather is stored in your investigation file.

By organizing the fragments and confirming your hypotheses, you can change what happens next—and the ending itself.

Which clues you pick up, how you connect them, and what answer you arrive at—how close you get to the truth depends on your deductions.
