New Visual Novel Explores Humanity's Sins in Deep Story

Kemco has released an intriguing new visual novel exclusively for Android devices, titled "Together We Live." This compelling narrative is set in a post-apocalyptic world and explores themes of human sins and the arduous journey of atonement. While it's now available on the Google Play Store, PC gamers can already enjoy it on Steam.

A Girl Atoning for Humans’ Sins

The protagonist, Kyoya, embarks on an unusual journey that begins when he awakens in a dimly lit room and discovers it's the year 4000—nearly 2000 years after his last memory. The Earth has transformed into a desolate wasteland, and the only other person around is a mysterious girl tasked with a profound mission.

This girl is trapped in a relentless cycle of death and rebirth, each time atoning for the sins of humanity. She dies and is reborn, over and over, in a cycle that's both brutal and heart-wrenching. Witnessing her plight, Kyoya feels compelled to teach her about the concept of happiness.

The story's pacing might initially seem slow, but once it gains momentum, the intricate twists, turns, and seemingly minor details from earlier in the narrative play a significant role in the unfolding drama.
