Story[]
(Taken from forbidden-siren.ru.)
Three years ago, Seichiro Towada, a scientist who led a certain project under the codename "Xeno", commited suicide. But he left a daughter, Hatsuka Towada. The girl had a rather weird personality, but what was even stranger was her extraordinarily high intelligence: tests showed that her IQ was 190 points! And once this girl has been kidnapped. Members of a local religious organization called "Mother" kidnapped a girl and drove her to an unknown destination. Then we see Hatsuka in some dark room, and there is a pistol on the floor next to her. She doesn't remember how she got here...

- Now the game does have sound! And sometimes it can warn you about presence of monsters.
- New game mechanic: the rooms are dark and you light them with a lighter. It's too weak and cannot light the entire room, so you must be careful. Also there are places where you need to turn your lighter off.
