Improved Localizations

The concept of 7 Days to End with You is built upon the main theme of “Language”. Therefore, we’ve taken the decision to re-localize all languages except for Japanese and Korean, and add fully localized UI to allow for a more complete experience in the language of your choice.

About the Game

To know a language, know the world, and finally know you.

You don't know a single word in the language of this world.

Deduce the meanings of words the person before you uses to communicate with you.

Then try to understand them like a puzzle, one piece at a time.

You are free to perceive the meaning of the words you read.

The relationship between the two characters is built on the words you interpret.

And their story is also built on the words you interpret.

Their world changes according to your understanding.

Maybe their story is a short, ordinary story, or maybe it's a long, peculiar story.

Or both stories could exist at the same time. There's nothing wrong with that.

The story is only complete with your interpretation.

So certainly, every story your interpretation results in is correct.

Even if you don't understand the story at first,

you have the opportunity to repeat it over and over again.

This is a short and long story, of only seven days.

Interact with various objects around the house and the person with you will provide an explanation. Study the symbols, deduce what each word means, and input the meaning of the word in the word list. When the same word appears in conversation again, the meaning you’ve attached to it will appear above the word. Of course, you can change the meanings of any word anytime you want. Only through repeated communication can you really gradually uncover the hidden story behind 7 Days to End with You.
