【What is 'Tsumimi Jikan: Kuruoshii Hodo Aishiteru'?】 It is a stream intervention x investigative mystery psycho-horror adventure game where players intervene as viewers in the stream of 'Tsumimi,' a former idol on the brink, and investigate an abandoned village with a dark past.

The story progresses in a 14-day cycle. During the day, players use clues found in the stream to gather information via social media, fan sites, and map searches. At night, they intervene in Tsumimi's stream through super chats, comments, and gifts. The collected information is accumulated in investigation files, eventually leading to the core of a hidden past and a disappearance case. Depending on the content of the gifts, unexpected reactions may come from Tsumimi's stream the next day.

Your intervention, investigation, deduction, and final choice will change the outcome of the story. Character design is handled by Wata, who has created visuals symbolizing the game's delicate emotional expressions and unique world view. The theme song is sung by Kagura Mea, with lyrics and composition by Kikuo. The song and game experience are linked, providing a deeper understanding of the work's theme. Furthermore, the theme song MV's video editing is handled by Toru Mitsuhashi, visually expressing the song and world view.
