Chapter 5: Horror game. a terrible game that aims to make people painful.

Playing a game that’s supposed to be fun while trembling like this… it’s unreasonable, truly unreasonable.

And I have to play that unreasonable game.

–Waku waku

–What game are you gonna play?

–Sounds fun

–Cry for me, 8th try

“U-um, but… what game should I play…?”

–You should figure that out

–Go to Entrance 18

–Go to Poppy’s Playtime

–Ugh, what the

“Sh-should I just play this…?”

I put a children’s flash game on the screen.

It was a game about safely returning home while avoiding the Red Mask.

Although it was a children’s game, it was somewhat scary, so I thought viewers would be satisfied with this much…

–?

–Seriously?

–If you’re really going to play that, refund my money

–Crazy bastard

‘…No way.’

[Someone has sponsored 1,000 won.]

–Let’s play Doki Doki White Days

“D-Doki Doki White Days…?”

When I searched for the game name, I saw characters standing on a pink background and the round, cute ‘Doki Doki White Days’ logo.

Fitting the name Doki Doki White Days, there was a character holding chocolate, another handing over a gift box…

‘What, this looks playable enough?’

‘No, beyond just playable, it’s exactly the kind of game I like.’

‘A game where you chat sweetly with girls, raise their affection, and enjoy a sweet harem life.’

“Oh, then should I do this one? You’ll acknowledge this as a horror game, right?”

–Yep

–Oh, go go go

–ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

–If you can imagine what he’ll look like in 30 minutes, give a thumbs upㅋㅋㅋ

–Are you good at horror games?

‘The reactions are a bit ominous.’

‘Still, it’s better than playing other horror games.’

****

[Satsuki: …I liked you.]

[Satsuki: …So…]

Hehehe.

This is it.

A sweet dating life.

‘To think I didn’t know about such a good game.’

‘I don’t know why the viewers acknowledged this as a horror game… but it’s good for me, I guess.’

[Satsuki: Please accept this chocolate!!]

>Accept

>Refuse

“Should I try pressing Refuse? It seems like it’d be fun…”

–Boo, trash

–Go go go go go

–(NewbieHunter) Try pressing itㅋㅋㅋ

Clicked Refuse.

As soon as I pressed the Refuse button, Satsuki’s face distorted and came rushing out with a bang, as if it would pop out.

“Argh!!!! Damn it!!!!”

A jump scare.

‘But why is this appearing now…’

–ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

–Are you awake now?

–This is the game you chose, endure it with sheer grit

–My ears almost burst

‘…I’m screwed.’

‘I didn’t know it would be this kind of game.’

‘This is cover art fraud.’

.

The game that ranked #1 as the scariest game this year.

They intentionally put cute and flashy illustrations on the main screen, and after the initial part of the game, the atmosphere changes completely.

The problem is, I didn’t know this.

And the second problem is that I already bought the game.

After realizing this game was a real horror game, the refund period had already passed, which is the third problem.

In the end, it means I have to play the game, if only to not waste the money…

The game’s atmosphere and story completely changed, turning it into a typical horror game where you have to find items and escape from a school you’re left alone in.

“H-hey, everyone, d-do I really have to play this…?”

–Yep

–Of course

–Breaking news) Super cute S-class beauty ran off with sponsorship money…

–Now that I think about it, his nickname is stupid.

“I-I really can’t do this…”

Just then, when I opened the classroom door, another jump scare appeared.

‘Trash game.’

“H-Hiyak…! Oh, y-you scared me…”

–Hiyak, lolㅋㅋㅋ

–Seriously?

–Is it that bad?

–(NewbieHunter) Hmm

[NewbieHunter has set a mission.]

–If you finish the ending today, 100,000 won–

“One hundred thousand won…? Then…”

“Y-you guys… if I just find 3 keys, it’s over, right?”

–Yep

–(NewbieHunter) It’ll be over in 30 minutes

–Wow, it’s really doable, right?

‘If it’s like this, I can’t not do it.’

‘If I have to choose between 100,000 won and my heart health, obviously it’s 100,000 won.’

I steeled myself and decided to challenge again.

‘I have to get that 100,000 won…’

As soon as I thought that, another jump scare.

“Hikiiyaaaak?!”

–What the hell is that sound?

–Hikiiyak?

–Scaredy-cat

–So cute

“D-Don’t tease me…”

****

“Kyaaaah!!!”

“H-hwek…”

While screaming like that, I somehow collected 2 keys.

If I find just one more, I can get 100,000 won.

“Guys, if I just pass through here, I’ll have all the keys, right?”

A very dark and long hallway.

Just looking at it makes frustration surge.

‘Still… I have to go, what else can I do?’

“H-hmm.”

Trembling, I crawled through the entire hallway, and there was a box.

I opened the box, took the key, and when I looked behind me.

Whack!!!!

“Kippiyaaat??!!!!”

–Kippiyaat, what the hell kind of cry is that?

–He’s really losing it

–If it’s cute, give a thumbs upㅋㅋㅋ

–Thumbs upㅋㅋㅋ

–Seriously?

“Ouch…”

In surprise, my chair fell backward.

‘My butt hurts a bit, but it’s okay.’

‘Now, if I just go to the exit, 100,000 won will come in.’

Excitedly, I moved the game character to the exit.

Hehehe.

100,000 won.

When I arrived at the exit, another jump scare appeared, but I’m not particularly surprised anymore.

“Hiiyaaaak?!!!”

‘…I was very slightly surprised.’

Anyway, now it’s the game’s ending.

If I just turn the doorknob…

“Ehehehe… now 100,000 won…”

As soon as I excitedly put my hand on the doorknob, *pop*.

The computer desktop appeared.

“Huh?!”

–?

–ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

–He got force-closedㅋㅋㅋ

–To give up 100,000 won just for broadcast contentㄷㄷ

“What the f—!”

“…This is a lie, right? If I go back in, it’ll be saved, right.”

With a desperate feeling, I tried turning the game on again, but only the title screen was displayed.

–ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

–What a wasteㅋㅋㅋ

–(NewbieHunter) Mission failed!

[NewbieHunter has canceled the mission.]

–ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

–Thanks to you, I enjoyed it for 2 hours^^

–Wow, he even broadcasts for free hereㄷㄷ

“Damn it… I’ll end the broadcast here today…”

Mourning my 2 hours and my heart, I turned off the broadcast.

‘Still, on a day when the viewer count increased, should I say it’s fortunate that such broadcast content was made…?’

“What’s fortunate…? My 100,000 won… my heart… Huhuuh…”

Reservation site: (Link)

–Oh

–I’m excited

–Finally!

–Ehehehe

–Wow, finally

–Oh, are we finally seeing the developer?

Ehehehe.

The Red Save Only Event.

An event solely for Red Save.

For a Red Save fan like me, it’s the best festival.

And to think the Red Save developer is even coming…

An anonymous solo developer who created the story, illustrations, modeling, music, and more, all by themselves.

That developer is finally appearing.

‘What kind of person could they be…?’

While grinning, thinking about enjoying the only event, a phrase caught my eye.

[Red Save Only Event tickets are limited to 1,000.]

What?

The number of users playing Red Save is 400,000.

The number of tickets is 1,000.

A 1,000 out of 400,000 chance.

In other words, only 0.25% of the chosen ones can go to the only event.

–No, damn it, what’s with only 1,000 tickets

–I’ll give you money, please just sell them

–I’m running to the PC bangㅋㅋㅋ

‘Hmm… I’ll have to prepare thoroughly…’
