About this game
When does childhood end? Both humans and the inhuman will find the answer at the end of a cycle of fight and flight. Solve puzzles and explore the world, depicted in hand-drawn pixel art Watch beautifully animated conversations between the main characters Join a young boy on his adventure and experience his story set in a hardcore sci-fi world Boyhood's End is a juvenile science fiction horror adventure game, in which the world is ruled by a mechanical overlord "R. Karellen". Every aspect of every person's life is rated with a "human score", and R. Karellen decides everything from academic and professional careers, romantic interests, to one's daily meals. ※This game contains some depictions of bullying and violence. The protagonist, Giovanni, has the lowest human score among the entire human race. Every day, he receives "special treatment" for everything including his meals and classes.

A senior student, the famously eccentric genius Campanella, reaches out to Giovanni, and they hop onto (and take over) a driverless train on the galactic railroad. And so, Giovanni gets swept up in a journey to find the "Crimson Southern Cross", located at the farthest edge of the universe. On their journey, the boys will meet great leaders of the past and pull reckless and destructive "pranks" on them all. Through their encounters with the history, twisted mysteries, and various horrors of the world, they will eventually have to confront the end of their own childhood. Oh, did you hear that? The boys are (pointlessly) sounding the train whistle. Looks like it's time for the galactic express to depart. ■Characters Giovanni "Shut up! I couldn't care less about your twisted logic, but here's the thing, I'm a human! And you'd better start treating me like one!" Has a wanted criminal as a father and the lowest human score in the universe. Gets treated like trash by other people and even the system itself. Has a cynical p…
