Their other games have had elements of darker themes but it's never been front loaded and usually still has the whimsy. But from the moment Stray Children starts there's this...wrong feeling. I didn't think of this until later, but unlike in so many other RPGs that begin with you're character waking up in bed—no one is calling for you. There's no cute morning jingle. You wake up, in the dark, with no music, alone.

Then the drawing, the missing dad, the note on the table promising a microwaved meal that isn't there...The dogs barking from somewhere, distressed, and as far as I can tell we are playing as some sort of dog character...

And then of course the guy who comes into your house and pretty much forces you to come with him—I was on edge the entire time.

Entering the game world was almost a relief, I haven't seen much of it yet and it's definitely messed up and decaying but, I don't know, its somehow more inviting than that entire real world intro.

Is this tone throughout the whole game? Did anyone else get such strong and strange vibes from the opening thirty minutes or so?

Not saying any of this is a bad thing, it's really cool, just I was so not expecting it.
