A suspense visual novel set in Shanhai City, where a forgotten natural disaster in 2012 erased residents' memories and official records. Players investigate a mysterious graduation photo for a woman in a wheelchair, tracing origins back to 2010 when photography club president Lin Manmiao discovers an old camera and riddle-filled envelope during cleanup. This leads club members-energetic "Neko" Manmiao, artistic "Susan" Su Shan, and literary "library princess" Liu Xiaoxin-through events questioning a predestined path or chance for renewal.
The casual indie simulation unfolds across Jingli High School and divided districts of North Mountain and South Sea, blending adventure elements with memory-driven inquiry. Ideal for fans of character-focused visual novels who enjoy piecing together hazy pasts in a waterfront setting.
"We agreed, graduation day, let's take a graduation photo together."
Even if that's an impossible desire...
Suspense Visual Novel "Frozen Memories" -
The story takes place in a waterfront city called Shanhai City.
There has been a rumor that "in 2012, the city was severely damaged due to a sudden natural disaster."
But strangely enough, no one has accurate memories of this time or of the natural disaster.
Nor is there any official record of what did happen during that time, only that it did happen.
Story Overview:
2014-
The woman in the wheelchair took out an old, blurred black-and-white photograph and said.
"I have, like, no memory of taking this graduation picture. If you can, I'd like you to look into it for me, I'd like to know where this photo came from."
This photo, however, was not supposed to exist in this world.
Maybe it all started four years ago ......
2010-
As soon as she is appointed as the president of the photography club, Lin Manmiao is faced with the crisis of having the club cancelled due to a lack of members.
As she hurriedly prepares to recruit new members, she and her fellow club members clean an unused art classroom, which they plan to use as the club's future activity room.
In the process of cleaning, they found a historic camera and a clean, new envelope among the debris.
Inside the envelope was a letter with some unexplained words written on it, sort of like a riddle.
That's when Manmiao had a sudden thought.
"Why don't we do what it says on this envelope and go figure out what kind of activity to do."
And is this whimsical phrase going to lead them into a future already set in stone?
Or, a new future of rebirth?
