Schrödinger's Call Offers a Phone Call Adventure in a Post-Apocalyptic World

Game Spark's Yoshida Terukazu played the Nintendo Switch version of Schrödinger's Call, a novel ADV from Acrobatic Chirimenjako and Shueisha Games. The game is set in a world that ended when the moon fell. The protagonist Mary becomes the world's last conversation partner, talking on the phone with souls who have unfinished regrets, helping them resolve their lingering feelings.

The game's protagonist Mary, guided by a cat named Hamlet, must help souls like Lucy, who was separated from her son William when the world ended. The phone calls reconnect multiple times, gradually revealing memories and regrets. Mary must find keywords that show William truly loved Lucy to resolve her regret. The review notes that the player cannot intervene in recreated past conversations, adding a layer of narrative constraint.
