Liminal Sick Pizza Blue

Liminal Sick Pizza Blue is a story-focused horror walking simulator with part-time job simulation elements in some scenes and very low-difficulty action scenes. You walk around, explore and progress by triggering events and conversations. The story takes around two hours.

Story

Hajime is a 27-year-old man in a band who is beginning to think seriously about life. On the recommendation of a city office employee, he takes a part-time job at a pizza shop that pays unusually well for its own reasons. He starts on a one-person shift, alongside a supposed senior who calls herself his junior and an outrageous manager, while dangerous customers send in a flood of orders.

The delivery destinations are liminal spaces, which are used as infinite land in this near-future society. The shop is rumored to be cursed, and serious paranormal phenomena occur. The mysteries are tied to the cryptic phrase E2T8P6.

Conversations and events

The adventure advances through conversations and events, telling a relatively conversation-heavy story about the characters’ relationships and backgrounds. Readings are provided to help players who are not comfortable with kanji follow along. The absurd premise supports a surprisingly serious story, with lighter humor woven through it.

Minigames and action

Minigame-like elements are much less difficult than in the previous title, Shoyu Ramen FOREVER, and should not prevent you from progressing. The game also includes very low-difficulty action scenes. Compared with that previous game, Liminal Sick Pizza Blue has slightly more horror, slightly less conversation and improved pacing.
