This is a blind playthrough of the game 'Yaku: Yūjō Dangi / Yaku: Yuujou Dangi' (Misfortune: A Story of Suspicious Friendships) for the PS1. This is surely one of the most bizarre games I have played through. I remember seeing this game years ago when I was just trying random games out. It stuck in my head ever since and when I decided to try and use some of the new tools available to translate games "automatically" that I've heard about, this game felt like a perfect fit! It definitely goes places... Note: This is the translated upload of this playthrough as the game doesn't have a patched version currently I had to use several tools to play it (I don't speak much, if any Japanese). This is my first attempt at any kind of translation so its fairly basic and excuse all the possible errors, but hopefully at least its understandable and you are able to follow the story. Tools used listed below. There is also an un-translated version uploaded alongside this for anyone who can follow along without English text. Released only in Japan on January 13, 1996, Misfortune - A Story of Suspicious Friendships is a visual novel horror game by Idea Factory. Late at night, five students gather at their old elementary school which was closed down due to a tragic incident years ago. They have decided to sneak into the school to dig up a time capsule which they buried in the courtyard. However things do not go to plan... The game features five characters and allows you to swap between them at various points in the story. The protagonist is named by the player at the start of the game, but the other characters are Kana, Kyoko, Hideaki and Yuichi. (Source: Gamefaqs, thanks to whowasphone404 for the manual translation) Platform: Playstation Released: January 13 1996 Developer: Axes Art Amuse Publisher: Idea Factory (Source: Mobygames) The game is played via emulation using Retroarch and it's built in AI service to assist with the translation.
