DisplaceMen is an experimental visual novel game. In the coastal town of Huanmen, everyone has the ability to DISPLACE, enabling them to make objects or even living beings appear and vanish out of thin air. The Player takes on the role of a broken painter, using found objects to make art. Their commissioners span from a motivational speaker, a trace scholar having a day job as a tattoo artist, a hardcore cosplayer teenager, to a pseudoscientist. In the seemingly serene everyday life, the painter gradually discovers the loss of someone significant. They will do anything to bring the forgotten “mermaid” back to reality.
