Our take on Kakureza Library
The focus on browsing invented books and making bibliographies comes with a practical limit: the catalog maker has no search function. Finding a particular title therefore depends on browsing rather than querying the catalog.
What is Kakureza Library?
Work at a library lending desk, choosing from 260 fictional books requested by visitors.
Book selections affect which patrons appear, the titles they borrow, and their dialogue, creating branching story paths with multiple endings, including bad endings. The books are also recorded in an in-game catalog that can be browsed as a gallery of fictional titles and their authors and publishers. A catalog maker lets players create bibliographies and take screenshots, but it has no search function. Alongside routine lending, several visitors mention “Cotonolia”; following these clues reveals the mystery at the true ending. The game keeps a calm, light tone while including science-fiction, occult, and mystery elements.
