Inou no Karte Hands-On at Tokyo Game Show 2026
The title started as a free unityroom release and is being built out into a full PC title, so its TGS2026 demo is the point where the counseling premise is being tested by a wider audience.
Reporting from 1 source: Game Spark.
A demo of Inou no Karte, a choice-based ADV where the player is a counselor filling in the charts of children who hide special abilities, ran at Tokyo Game Show 2026 at Makuhari Messe from September 17 to 20. The demo let players talk with Erika, a shy girl, and Hiiro, a red-haired boy. A session runs one hour, and a conversation can end it early or leave the counselor missing. The full game is set for PC (Steam) in 2026.
Each counseling session in Inou no Karte lasts one hour, and the clock is the pressure. Talking with the children reveals their personalities, likes, quirks, and traumas, and new information is written into the chart automatically.
That tension runs both ways in the demo: the player weighs how much to ask a child, and a conversation can end the session partway through or leave the counselor missing. The work began as a free game on the submission site unityroom, and the expanded version is headed to PC (Steam) in 2026.
