The Price of a Call
The pink phone she picked up has no power button and no maker's logo. Only three rules float on its screen.
①
Anyone called from this phone can speak nothing but the truth for as long as the call lasts
②
When the call ends, the other person forgets it ever happened
③
Every minute on the line costs the owner one year of their life
"Here's the thing about rules. Right when you think you've read them all, the one line you skipped bares its teeth."
— Charme, the Reaper of Love
The Night She Found It
02:00
Two in the morning. Tsukiko Himeno sat staring at the pink phone she had picked up three days ago.
02:07
The one she loves: Ren Hikami, a third-year. First in the national mock exams, cold to everyone, known to the whole school as "Lord Hikami."
02:09
Her finger trembles. Dial. On the third ring, he answers.
02:09
"…Who is this?" Like a cork pulled free, the truth comes pouring out.
00:58
"Safe—right!?" She slams the end-call button.
――
"Seconds round up. Fifty-eight seconds still costs you a year."
Every call shaves years off Tsukiko's life. But the boy on the other end really does tell her the truth. — This is a love story about paying with your life to buy someone's honest heart.

Protagonist · 2nd year / timid, but with a core of steel

R
Ren Hikami
3rd year · "Lord Hikami" / top of the national mock exams · sweet tooth
"I'll find the culprit. I always do. …Strange. It isn't fear I feel. It's anticipation."
C
Charme
Reaper of Love / loves konpeito star candy · impossible to pin down
"Human love is far too fine a thing to be a reaper's way of killing time."
M
Misaki

"Idiot. Total idiot. …Fine. I'll be your lookout."

Every Choice Costs You Something
Real-Time Calls
The seconds tick by for real, and every one of them eats into her lifespan. Fight the temptation of "just a little longer."
Ren's Notebook
You're the one being hunted. Peek at Ren's investigation notes and plan your next move—a detective story played from the suspect's side.
Charme's Shop
Deals paid for in years, with no refunds. The more you buy, the further you drift from the true ending.
Hidden Rules
"Seconds round up." Some rules you only learn the hard way.
How to Play — A Day Has Four Scenes
Eight days in all. Read, choose, make a call, sleep. Days that simple, slowly becoming something you can't undo.
DAY
Choose, at school
Pick your replies in conversations with Ren and Misaki. Choices that raise affection usually raise suspicion right along with it.
NIGHT
To call, or not to call
Decide whether to make tonight's call. A night without a call costs no years—but the story doesn't move either.
CALL
59 seconds, or beyond
The seconds tick in real time. Hang up within 59 seconds and it costs one year. Cross the one-minute mark and deeper questions unlock—for two years.
SLEEP
Sleep, and morning comes
The game autosaves every morning. Check Ren's Notebook to see how much he has figured out, then head into the next day.
THREE NUMBERS
Lifespan
Starts at 65 years. Your HP and your currency. Calls and deals with Charme spend it. The moment it hits zero, the call is over.
Affection
How much of his true heart Ren will show you. You'll need this number to reach the TRUE END.
Suspicion
How far Ren's investigation has come. At 100, he uncovers who you are.
Call logs never last. — Or so they said.
There are as many endings as there are answers. Where will you end up?
ENDINGS6 / 6 LOCKED

?????????
There is only one TRUE END. You reach it only by putting the phone down and saying it in your own words.
FAQ
- Does it cost anything?
- No. It's free—no sign-up, no install. Just open it in your browser and play.
- What can I play it on?
- It's designed for a phone held upright. It runs in a desktop browser too, but this is a game best played in bed, late at night.
- How long does it take?
- About 20–30 minutes per playthrough. There are six endings, and collecting them all makes a new item appear on the title screen.
- Can I save?
- The game autosaves every morning, and you can save manually from the night menu. Data is stored in your browser, so open it on the same device and browser to pick up where you left off with "Continue" (clearing your browser data erases it).
- Do the call seconds really pass in real time?
- Yes. On the call screen the seconds tick by on a real clock, and you decide when to hang up (they run faster than real time to keep the pace up).
- What is "4 minutes 32 seconds"?
- We can't tell you here. You'll find out when you reach the end of the game.
- Can I play in Japanese or Korean?
- Yes. Both the landing page and the game itself are available in the original Japanese and in Korean. → 日本語版 / 한국어판
- Is it based on something?
- It's based on a novel of the same name. The game takes its rule—"anyone you call can only tell the truth, but every minute costs a year of your life"—and turns it directly into the player's decisions.
The phone is ringing.
Answer, or hang up. A story you keep choosing, one minute at a time.
