夜光虫２殺人航路 Yakochu II Satsujin Koro Noctiluca scintillans 2 : The Murder Line CONTENTS 0.Introduction 1.Manual and Box Translation - Controls and Story 2.Walk-through Main Route Bomb Route Desert Island Route Murderer Route 3.Endings 0.Introduction This is my current translation project. Here you can find a translation of the relevant sections of the manual and box. Hopefully, if time allows, I will attempt to translate the entire game too. There are many ways to translate the word Yakochu into English. Noctiluca scintillans is the scientific name for a species of dinoflagellate that lives in the ocean and seems to sparkle at night. They are also commonly called Sea Fire, Sea Sparkle, Mareel and even Ghost Sea. I am not sure which one would suit the game best, so I have currently left it as a direct translation. Thank you for reading this guide. I hope you enjoy the game. James 1.Manual and Box Translation - Controls and Story Back of the box In front of your eyes a nightmare has started.
