Chain-smoking Neji Taihei is an average Japanese guy, lives by himself in his
apartment, and is kind of a loser. Naturally, just letting the guy continue
being a loser isn’t particularly interesting, so a spirit that happens to also
live in his apartment starts to toy with his daily life.
You can affect Neji in two different ways. If he’s not around, you can
interact with things in his apartment like moving his table, or locking his
door. If he is around, you can throw little ping-pong balls at objects to
focus his attention on them. If you throw too many too fast, though, he’ll get
depressed and ignore you.
The game follows a calendar with different missions to do on different days.
Each mission in the game starts with a short video showing what you need to
get Neji to do, which can be something simple like making him use his computer
or drink a glass of water, or something more complicated like getting him to
order something from a TV ad. Depending on your success in each mission, the
outcome will change, and you will determine if Neji remains a loser for the
rest of his life.
