Description
About This Game
Day in and day out, Makoto the postman carries letters to the people of Aquaria.
One morning, he opens his eyes to find he is not alone—a strange and inexplicable visitor stands at his bedside.
Soon after, he learns of a grim rumor spreading through the watery nation.
As the letters he delivers bring writer and reader together, a once-forgotten truth begins to resurface.
This version of From_. expands on the world first seen in the iOS/Android game to take players on a brand-new adventure.
The story follows Makoto Maejima, a humble postman, as he crosses paths with the people of the world’s three nations: Aquaria, Ingens, and Ventus.
In Aquaria, Makoto finds himself the intermediary between two young lovers wrestling with social boundaries that would keep them apart.
Upon visiting Ingens, he meets a conflicted official standing solemnly in front of a grave.
And when hope seems lost, a traveler from Ventus brings him news—and a chance for redemption.
Amidst a maelstrom of emotion and conflict, only the letters Makoto delivers can bring these souls together.
But what truth awaits the postman upon the completion of his long journey?
- From_.'s music was recorded live. Consider wearing headphones while playing to best enjoy its beautiful piano melodies.
