Game Synopsis
©NCSX▪
While on summer vacation, the protagonist of
Fragments Blue receives a letter from a mysterious
sender which prompts him to return to his hometown
after leaving a few years ago. The letter contains a
single sentence and appears to be from a friend who
died from serious illness 2 years ago. To further
the mystery, the envelope also contains a single
gold-colored key. Who sent the letter and
what does the key unlock? What potentially spooky adventures await at home?
To answer these questions and more, take a train
ride back home and interact with seven girls in the
Fragments Blue world to solve the riddle of the
letter. Along with the gals and the mystery, a
cloaked stranger provides drama and intrigue.
Along with
the regular edition of Fragments Blue, a
limited
edition is also in stock which is bundled with a
hardcover conceptual file booklet which contains
colorful illustrations of the characters in the
game.
A slipcase is also included to hold both game +
booklet together.
NCS Game Notes
* In the intro to the game, a tender melody plays
while various characters appear near a white fence.
The scene shifts to a profile image of the
protagonist who's wearing a cap imprinted with the
word "Rude" and the various characters in the game
appear in still images that fade in and out with
close-ups and spin effects added to liven things up.
* Fragments Blue is best described as mystery
adventure lite.
* The "EXTRA" selection on the title screen contains
a large amount of visual album data and sound
effects that have to be unlocked before they may be
accessed.
* Upon starting the game, the background story is
set-up while the protagonist is visiting a friend at
the hospital. She's wearing a pink blouse and has
her hair tied up in a braid thing that falls over
her right shoulder.
Outside the window, the clouds move across the sky
from left to right while a mountain and quaint town
lie below. She'll do most of the talking, sneeze,
and vocalize her thoughts while making a few facial
transitions as allowed by the still frame artwork.
Most of what she says in the dialogue screens is
also spoken by a voice actress. Later, a paper
airplane is thrown out the window and she exclaims
in surprise when it drops down. A second plane that
flies through the air appears to symbolize ascension
of hope and spirit.
In the next scene, protagonist is on a train
listening to a portable music player while the
background scenery rolls across. .
* During the train ride, four synopses of the
previous events that just happened may be viewed and
reviewed to ensure that your understanding of the
storyline is intact.
* Progress may be saved at any time by pressing the
START button, pressing O at the first option, and
then selecting the save slot. To load data from
memory card at any time, press START, press O at the
second option, and then selecting the data to load.
* The entire transcript of events that have already
transpired may be view by pressing the TRIANGLE
