Stepping into the world of Suginomori Clinic feels like opening a beautifully wrapped box only to find something unsettling inside. This mental clinic, as it turns out, is far from a place of healing - it's a corrupted institution where personal vendettas take precedence over professional ethics. You play as Keigo Osakabe, a therapist with a troubled past and a heart full of unresolved emotions.
The narrative kicks off with a seemingly routine case assignment from the director, but the file handed to you is anything but ordinary. Seeing the name of your former boss, Shigeru Kosaka - the man who inspired your career choice - immediately sends you spiraling into memories of your past life as an office worker. Then comes the real shock: the name of Arika Kosaka, the woman you were secretly obsessed with during those days.
What follows is a psychological journey through regret, obsession, and the dark corners of human desire. The game masterfully captures that painful feeling of watching from the sidelines as the person you wanted chose someone else. Now, years later, fate has delivered her to your office, and those suppressed feelings come rushing back with violent intensity.
The character design for Arika Kosaka is particularly noteworthy. Voiced by Yura Kayahara, she stands at 163cm with measurements of 85cm bust, 58cm waist, and 86cm hips. Her modest appearance belies the complexity of her situation - newly married yet struggling with intimacy issues in her relationship. This creates a fascinating dynamic where professional boundaries blur with personal obsession.
From a technical standpoint, the game delivers substantial content:
The visual presentation combines detailed character artwork with atmospheric backgrounds that perfectly capture the clinic's unsettling vibe. Each scene feels carefully crafted to maintain tension while advancing the story. The voice acting adds depth to characters, making emotional moments hit harder and creating a more immersive experience overall.
What makes this game stand out is how it explores the darker aspects of human psychology without judgment. It presents a morally complex situation where the player must navigate professional ethics against personal desires. The writing manages to be both provocative and thoughtful, creating a story that stays with you long after you've finished playing.
