So, while watching Game Center CX, they came across a very unusual game that I cannot find any records of.
Not much is known of this game since naturally it was never sold outside of Japan, perhaps maybe not even outside of Tokyo, but what we do know of it is this:
- The main characters are Isamu (the bear dude) and Condor (a drag queen trying to expose a serial killer in Tokyo’s gay district)
- It was made and funded by the gay community, programmed together by the bartender of a gay bar.
- It had a rather unusual time limit where the main character, Condor, had to solve the case before 5am or else their beard would be too unshaven and they would become exposed out of shame.
- and lastly, most impressively, it was a game that can only be played at night.
An internal clock in the cartridge would prevent the game from booting up unless it was after dark, since that is when most businesses open up in Shinjuku-Nichome.
I’m just stunned nothing of this exists from what I can find, but Game Center CX opened a little window into Japanese gay culture that I found really interesting.
