NEARBY: 3 LIKES

Three likes. Three men. One Tokyo.

You play Yuto, 26, a café worker in Tokyo. Three men have liked his profile on NEARBY: Toru, 31, a personal trainer who finished work early for this; Rai, 24, a graduate student who is easier to talk to than his photo suggests; and Ryosuke, 28, a marketer whose interest is easy to read — and harder to answer.

Meet on screen. Choose how you respond.

Scenes play as photoreal cinematic video with Japanese voice. At turning points you choose Yuto's reply or attitude — a little more direct, or give the moment room — and watch how he reacts. No affection meter, no right answers. The response is in his words, his eyes, and the distance between you.

A first date, then the choice to meet again.

The full game follows three relationships: deciding whether to see someone again, growing closer, and finally choosing one man — or no one.

The first playable chapter follows Yuto's first date with Toru: a café, a riverside walk at sunset, and a station farewell. This chapter is available now as a free demo for Windows and macOS. Select Download Demo on this page to play.
