OMORI : C2

WHITE SPACE C2

The game opens with a short clip of BASIL comforting a crying SUNNY, asking him to promise that they'll always be there for each other.

OMORI is welcomed to WHITE SPACE, where he has been living "for as long as [he] can remember." He checks his laptop, sketchbook, tissues, and black lightbulb and talks to MEWO before he hears something falling nearby. He searches until he finds a SHINY KNIFE. Going beyond the borders results in the room looping around, or the RED HANDS taking OMORI back to the center of the room. OMORI exits through the door into the NEIGHBOR'S ROOM where he meets with his friends AUBREY, KEL, and HERO playing cards.

Looking back in the keyhole of his door, SOMETHING appears in the room. The door is suddenly locked. OMORI helps AUBREY find her STUFFED TOY that KEL hid away when they got into another fight. Once that's done, HERO offers to take them to a picnic with MARI and BASIL, and everybody joins the party. The party leaves the NEIGHBOR'S ROOM out to the stump, which takes them to HEADSPACE, a large, vibrant world.

The party heads south to the FOREST PLAYGROUND where there are many colorful characters and friends, including OMORI's older sister, MARI and the group's good friend, BASIL, having a picnic. The player can see from subsequent dialogue and BASIL's PHOTO ALBUM that MARI cares a lot about OMORI, that KEL and AUBREY frequently get into petty fights, MARI and HERO flirt with each other, HERO is KEL's older brother, and that BASIL takes photos to put into his PHOTO ALBUM. The group is then forced to play hide and seek with the other kids by BERLY. When BOSS, a character banned by BERLY from the playground, takes BASIL hostage, the group fights him, learning basic battle mechanics, as well as OMORI'S ability to "not succumb" the first time he is reduced to 1 health. The group heads south of town to BASIL'S HOUSE to see his plants, where each character's basic personality traits are described. BASIL wants to be optimistic, MARI is positive, HERO is versatile and easily liked, AUBREY is true to herself, KEL is resilient, and OMORI is plain. Additionally, the player learns more battle mechanics along the way by fighting sprout moles. In front of his house, BASIL takes a blurry photo of his friends. AUBREY and KEL begin arguing and shoving to see the photo, accidently pushing BASIL's photo album and his photos onto the ground. They enter the house to organize the photos back in the album, but afterwards an extra photo of MARI falls out, horrifying BASIL. BASIL, panicked, believes the photo is familiar though he doesn't remember it. A shadow builds around BASIL, and as BASIL is about to express what is happening to MARI in the photo, the photo flashes on the screen briefly, and causes OMORI to reappear in WHITE SPACE. This time, however, the door to NEIGHBOR'S ROOM is missing. He stabs himself to return to the real world.
