Relive the last day of the 20th century in an infinite time loop, repeating the day without past memories to uncover secrets and reshape outcomes. Players plan daily activities, explore diverse characters like the know-it-all with glasses or the neighbor granny, and navigate intersecting main stories plus side tales of teenage love and family tensions. Set in 1990s China with crayon hand-painted visuals, the indie strategy RPG simulation blends adventure choices into a Borges-inspired narrative network.
Engage in mini-games like Mini 4WD races to dominate tracks, Gamicom console play for hidden stories, and arcade challenges evoking nostalgic Chinese toys. Assemble cars, collect cartridges, and climb rankings while facing personal regrets head-on. This PC adventure suits fans of thoughtful time-loop planning and character-driven simulations.
Unlike Groundhog Day's time-loop narrative, A Perfect Day allows players to repeat the last day of the 20th century without the memories from the past loops. You can explore the secrets of those around you, plan your daily activities, and make your own choices. Bid farewell to the regrets of the past, fulfill everyone's dream, and welcome the new century with fireworks. Inspired by the storytelling of Jorge Luis Borges, adventure and truth are awaiting you.
Multiple stories and elaborate designs are presented in the game. The four main stories are interpreted in a narrative network structure and intersect in an infinite time loop. Besides, there are many side stories waiting to be experienced, such as the one with growing pains of friends, the one with confusion and innocence of teenage love, the one with how to deal with the father's temper tantrums, etc. Face the problems head-on and figure out how to turn the situations around.
The know-it-all with glasses, the rich kid who keeps pace with the trend, the Study Rep you have a crush on, the neighbor granny who seems to know something special about you, and the crazy homeless man who keeps talking about aliens... What secrets lie beneath their surface? Follow and come to know a diverse cast of characters and rewrite their stories.
The 1990s was a time of exchanges and rapid development between China and the West. The game depicts China in the 1990s in a unique crayon hand-painted style, well-reflecting the Chinese lifestyle in the late 90s. Some "old things" in the game also give the players a feeling of nostalgia, reliving the beauty of the things in the past.
A variety of mini games are designed in the game, such as the Mini 4WD race, the "Gamicom" console, the arcade, etc. Through these, players can enjoy the toys and games that were popular in China in the 1990s.
In the game, you can assemble a powerful Mini 4WD for yourself to challenge new tracks and all kinds of rivals, and finally become the town's king of Mini 4WD. You can also collect game cartridges and play mini-games on the "Gamicom" console, which might unlock some hidden stories or get you on the "National Gamicom Rankings"...
