Today we wanted to start introducing the main characters you'll meet in Kotodama: The 7 Mysteries of Fujisawa.
It's fair to say that the first, most important character you'll meet is Nanami Kagura. Outside of Mon-chan, the little demon fox, she's the first character you come across.
She's sweet, kind-hearted and a constant bundle of energy, she also takes you under her wing and gives you the initial tour of the Fujisawa Academy.
She's also important in that she's also involved in your first attempt at using your power - Kotodama. This the means by which you strip your target in a bid to get to the truth.
But underneath all that rampant enthusiasm for life, you soon detect just a twinge of sadness. What's bothering her? Why is she so obsessed with the 'Curse of Mikoto' - one of the seven mysteries of Fujisawa?
We have a soft spot for Nanami, mainly because she's one of the first characters we created. Above is a little of the original concept art when we were developing. She's been with us from the start, so she has a special place in our heart!

Thank you for finding Kotodama
HELLO EVERYONE - WE MADE A GAME! PLEASE BE GENTLE!
If you've found yourself on this Kotodama: The 7 Mysteries for Fujisawa page, then we'd like to say a big thank you for coming here.
Some of you may be here because you've been kind enough to play PQube's games before. If so then, hello again. You're The Best.
If you're completely new to us, as a publisher, then welcome - we hope you like what you find here, and choose to stick around! :)
You may or may not know that Kotodama is actually PQube's very first New IP. 'New IP' being the sort of phrasing that we secretly hate because it's what our corporate overlords sometimes say - but the fact is, this is our first project where we've been involved in producing a game from concept to completion.
Normally we publish other people's games. We look for games we like. Games which are kind of... er... interesting. Or slightly left-field, or, well... a bit ecchi, or cute, or both.
We also like Visual Novels, like, A LOT. So it sort of made sense to make a game which was a little bit VN, a little bit Ecchi and, well, also a little bit unusual.
Developing Kotodama with our friends, Art Co. in Japan has been a BIG learning curve for us - sometimes scary and stressful, but mostly fun!
We hope that Kotodama gives you some 'well, I wasn't expecting that!' feels - maybe makes you laugh a little bit. Hopefully surprise you and give you some genuine 'WTF?!' moments. But mostly in a good way.
Being our very first development project, we also hope that any long-time PQube fans can support us. Even just hitting 'wishlist' can go a long way to helping out. All being well, with your support, Kotodama can continue on.
Think of this as the seed, as it were. If you, our community, can help it grow, then we can continue this universe and the story of the characters. We hope this is just the beginning.
A HUGE thanks to all of you who have been so supportive of us so far!
The PQube Team
