About this game

Description

Supplied by the Steam store

🎩 Beyond the screen, a man who should not know you is watching. His name is Liotte . From inside the television, he speaks to you — as though he has been waiting for your arrival.

“What would you say to someone who is obsessed with you?”

Channel 453 is a one-on-one interactive visual novel that explores trust, anxiety, obsession, and the meaning of “true love.”

The kindness in front of you may not remain kindness. Behind devotion lies something deeper — loneliness… or something far more unsettling.

※ The protagonist is female and uses she/her pronouns.

Since many scenes are direct one-on-one conversations, characters often address her simply as “you,” though she/her pronouns are also used throughout the full game.

We hope this clears up any misunderstanding. More information about the protagonist and the full game will be revealed as release approaches. Please look forward to meeting her!

■ Character Introduction

Ivan

Ivan A sharp-tongued man with an unsettling presence. He acts as if everything happening around him is already familiar.

Liotte

Liotte A calm and mysterious man who seems to know more about Channel 453 than he lets on. His gentle smile never quite reveals what he is thinking.

MC

The Protagonist A pale-skinned young woman who appears to have forgotten her own name for reasons she cannot explain. With only fragments of memory left, she finds herself drawn deeper into Channel 453.
