In Higurashi Gaming, the instructions will play out similarly to the anime and visual novel series. Meaning, if you haven't watched/read the two, and you want to, it is not recommended that you play this.

SIGN-UPS



1) The player must post their application into the host's thread. Once they do, they'll be considered part of the game.



2) You have to use applications that you officially registered with - unless the host says otherwise.



3) All other directions the host states applies.

THE GAME



In Higurashi, your fate has already been decided, even before the game began. The whole purpose is to solve the mystery of Hinamizawa, or whatever custom location the host created, and to find out why everything is happening.



To make a timeline of how the game will play out, here's what it'll look like:



1) Daily and Nightly Life Roleplay will appear. In here, it is a necessity that the players roleplay, as this is a key element to the story. Players submit 2-6 actions, so they can prove their alibis for later murders, or, just roleplay. You must choose from a location on the map, and specify what you did there.



2) Then, all of the players must attend the Watanagashi Festival, to praise Oyashiro-Sama. Here, the game takes a dark turn. Players will die, go disappearing, people will betray each other, and more.



3) A player will be found missing, and two people will be found dead.



4) An "Investigation Period" will begin, where all the villagers can call the Hinamizawa Police Department, and get specialized requests on specific information regarding the case.



5) Hinamizawa citizens will discuss who the killer is, and vote against them. The alleged person can either:

- Be hauled off to jail

- Get executed

- No punishment



6) More events will happen, until the story falls into despair.



7) The story will "reset", meaning everyone will live again and get different roles. Four resets are in a story - With a question arc, something that gives you clues and questions, and an answer arc, explaining the question arc.

Each player will be assigned a role, and it is against the rules to tell others your role. They are:



The Sacred One - Has knowledge about each reset in the time loop, and knows what happened. Can see all the "evidence", and was specially picked by Hanyuu Furude, the goddess of Hinamizawa.



Cursed One - Will be taken as the victim in Oyashiro-sama's curse, and will go missing. The town of Hinamizawa's goal is to solve the mystery behind this.



Infected One - Daily, the player will visit another player, and infect them with the Hinamizawa Virus. This means that they suffer extreme symptoms of paranoia, delusions, hallucinations, etc. THE PLAYER WILL NOT KNOW THAT THEY ARE THE INFECTED ONE, OR THAT WHAT THEY ARE SEEING IS FALSE.



Answered One - A secret, or clue, about the player will be revealed in the arc to progress the story.



Victim - This player will be murdered, or will die somehow.



Murderer - This player will kill for an unknown reason. In the next reset, the player will become the Answered One.



Main Character - Cannot disappear, or die, until the very end of the arc. They are the most important person of the arc. The story is about them.

Enjoy, and don't become the victim of Hinamizawa's Curse.
