26:04 I have no idea why but hearing CJU get pissed at an old lady for not buying anything and using the "deluxe toilet facilities" is absolutely hilarious to me 😂
The noise outside was cicadas! They are super loud in the US but apparently even louder in Japan. Apparently England only has one species of Cicada and it's only found in one wildlife park and they are endangered where you are....
@@thenorthstarsamurai I can relate! They can get pretty loud in the US! Honestly, they scare me lol. There was one just sitting on my front door one night and Everytime I'd try to go for the handle, it would tell at me. Ever since then, they freak me out
As someone who actually works in a convenience store, most customers are that rude, also there are often spirits that knock stuff off shelves....its more of a hassle at this point.
My gf works as a floater pharmacist, and has definitely seen a lot of temper tantrums- including violent ones. Too many Karens and man children out there
That was pretty cool. I even liked "Convenience Store Simulator"; made up for the lack of an arcade machine :-) . Also pretty cool that it was *_so_* uneventful that of _course_ you watched the tapes, even though that was a bad idea. Interesting enough that I would play through it a couple times to see the results of 1) not watching the tapes at all (indeed never even accepting the first one); 2) throwing the last tape away; or 3) sending the tape to "someone else" (like who? and who sent this one to me? the manager clearly watched all of them so it wasn't him). Anyway, a pleasant hour-- thanks, Chris!
Thank you for turning off that 'VHS' filter, Chris. It's nice to be able to enjoy a game without feeling like one has a terrible migraine :) Feeling amused at the massive wall of blue units behind the counter that just say 'たばこ' literally 'tabako'. Guess they weren't going to put in cigarette packaging :)
Hey We have an intense Drug dealer horror game coming out soon! Care to check it out? I can also send you demo when out. biggestgames.itch.io/hoodthestreets BiggestGames
Awesome! I'm glad to see you uploading again. Your by far my favorite youtuber. Don't push yourself to hard with you being sick and all. Hope you feel better soon.
26:18 Job Counsellor: "Uh, may I suggest a different career path? One with less direct contact with the public. Septic Worker or Mortician, perhaps?" ツ That had a slow build for sure, but it got spooky right enough. I wonder how one would get the good ending. Thanks for uploading this Chris...now, get some rest!
What you should be wondering is what the "good" ending would be...Totally uneventful shifts helping customers and roasting old ladies at a late-night convenience store? Where the only excitement is your colleague jumping out of a locker at you? Now that I say it out loud, maybe that _is_ the good ending. Is that sad?
Chris you can certainly still tell from your voice that you’re sick. Hope you’re feeling better ❤️. I’m the sickest I’ve ever been and have my family caring for me. I hope we both get better ASAP 👍🏼
Seems like everyone in the world is getting sick right now. At the same time no less, I thought these kinds of things took some time to travel the glob. This is certainly a violent one.
"Deliberately checking in a video game just to make whether or not his character accidentally left the stove on before leaving their house." My dudes responsible and notices details, makes this all the more immersive. Nice!
I can't shake the feeling that you would make the best children's book narrator ever or a host on a children's show. You got that warm relaxing vioce mate.
The game started slow, but its got a nice buildup. I liked it. From how I understood it, its almost like The Ring, except this one gave you a choice on the 4th day, instead of branding the person the 7-day tenure to live. The more you watch the tapes on each day, the more you're inviting the spirit to overcome you. Also, the #4 for the Japanese ("shi"), when it comes to these situations, alludes to death. Hence, the 4 nights, 4 TVs, the Channel 4 on the CCTV, and the huge red 4 you found with the dead manager.
I came home after the dullest evening with some friends and decided to watch this, my mood has greatly improved. Slow but fun little game with good jumpscares (my laptop almost fell off my knees twice - the colleague jumpscare and the ghost in the CCTV one), as always greatly improved by your funny commentary. Cheers!
wow,this is one of the most entertaining playthroughs i've seen on this channel, and i've watched a lot at this point XD... the bastard that wanted you to get the beer instead of doing it himself. the old lady who came all the way here ,just to not buy anything and take a shit in your pristine bathroom XD.... this is worth its weight in gold compared to all the lazy jump scare games! but outside is WAY TOO DARK! i consider this a issue not a feature! indoor lights are the only ones that work like they are suppose to! i cringed when i saw the bike out in the rain...its going to get rust... i would have chose the trash at the end.
I had this game on my wishlist for a while and finally got it today - played it right away as I really wanted to watch your playthrough of it. I actually really like this game, great atmosphere. The coworker/locker bit was both terrifying and hilarious! I'm now wishing there was just a customer service simulator so we could listen to you complain about endless horrid customers - so funny!
I used to work with CCTV and it drives me nuts when people waste 1/3 to 1/2 the view on a brick wall. It's such a waste of vision. 10 year professional OCD annoyance.
Seems like this was based off The Ring and The Grudge a bit. You have the tapes part and then you have the horrible things that happened to the lady and her son making them malicious spirits (if you do the ending that sends the tape to someone else you find out what happened to them). I liked the game in the end, though wish some more creepy stuff happened earlier like when you have to walk from her house to the store or when you got locked in rooms, etc. Hope you get better soon Cju!
I loved this game, it's definitely going on my "Watch Again" list! It's waaay better than Night Shift by Puppet Combo. Glad you're feeling better and well enough to give us these cool videos! :)
_Just found this. I'm here because of the recommended after watching your video "The Closing Shift". And like any game from_ #ChillasArt _it's always about scary and creepy experienced when working at night, even just walking to the convenience store is nerve-wracking, imagine having to do that walk every night for work!_ 😰 *_Thank you for the video CJU_* *ASMR* 4:04 😋 45:5553:54 *That was scary* 😨
This is my 2nd time watching this. I really hope there's more indie games out there similar to this for you to play. Something about doing a repetitive, boring job with increasingly spooky things happening is unusually entertaining to me.
Hey man, love your videos. Your genuine attempt to remain positive and upbeat even when the games are mediocre is fantastic. Here's hoping you get a chance to play World of Horror when it comes out on the 20th. Hope you feel better soon!
Great to see your upload! I immediately thought Nightshift as well. I don't know if the pay off is as good, but always entertaining to listen to be worried about a drink display :P
You should have done all three endings. ;oD Interesting game. Love that rat spray - kills them and makes them disappear! Thanks for playing, Chris! Hope you're feeling better.
I worked at a Japanese convenience store for 6 years and I can tell you this is 100% accurate. Also 4 in Japanese is pronounced "shi" which carries the double meaning of "death", kanji is different tho.
Yesterday you said you really didn't care about toilets... 😮 but then today you just couldn't resist opening that lid and taking a peak. Embrace the toilet fetish! We all love you for it. 😂
Nice night shift mall simulator. Spooky things are typical whoever stood on a night shift duty. I'm sure that encounters with poltergeists and disfigured creepy figures are normal in this line of job :)
I greatly enjoyed that game! All of my favourite horror movies are Japanese, and this has that vibe that I love where things just creep up on you until you're neck deep in horror. Very cool. Also, carrot juice is good.
I kinda dig how weird and uncanny these high resolution photo textures are on the assets for this game, not ps1 style per say, but I thinks its worth exploring, the humans are offputtin in just the right ways.
Can't tell what this story was all about but it was quite nice and interesting. Poor old lady...not only that she is foot sick and demented now she is also blinded by your flashlight... very sad.
Slow burns are the best burns. What a creepy and interesting game! Will you play the other endings? I'm also gonna recommend the Rusty Lake and Cube Escape series one more time! I really think you'd enjoy the puzzles and the crazy plots.
I'm pretty sure the manager was secretly videotaping her at home across the street from the window. He was watching the tapes in that little room. There's a VHS recorder/player and the number 4 means death in several Asian languages. The implication is that she's not the first employee he did this too.
Been to Japan, they (usually teens/kids) still steal just like everywhere else. I think mainly is, police don’t do anything if it does happen, that includes groping too. :/
Nah, *shop lifting occurs frequently in Japan too.* Especially so in convenience stores. And police don't carry guns. In fear of their own safety(perhaps) they often slack on their job.
Plus, their legal system sucks. Murder, molestation, suicide, mugging, etc. Don't count on getting an ounce of justice over there. This could be a big part as to why so many citizens commit suicide.
I really liked this!! it didn't feel dull at all though it took some time to get going, with the different tasks you had to do and different people you interacted with. the scares were really good, and the creepy parts reaaally spooky. I'm guessing not watching any of the tapes isn't an option, so the choice only comes down to the fourth night? I'm curious about the other routes, but I'm very glad you chose the bad ending, because it is a truly terrifying one.
Fun video! And fyi, passing the video on (you return it to sender) gets you the backstory. A man who used to work at the convenience store murdered his entire family and put nails into his pregnant wife's when he killed her. She quits, and later the store is closed.
The horror element is working in a store & find out that the guy working before you is slacking & leaving all the work for you to do

Aniko Horne but for some reason even sometimes it's annoying i kinda enjoy it
but when theres too much i just can't take it and go back in
Aniko Horne well atleast US does not have the same Cicadas same as the ones in my granpa's backyard
@@thenorthstarsamurai are they huge? Or just loud?
1 hour of CJU being unsettled by drink displays.
At least a good 40 minutes.
I'm like "turn off the flashlight when you're stepping in the light!" :x my eyes...
Yes, me too, I hated it.^^
I was just gonna say something like he always forgets to turn off the flashlight
Glass panes without curtains in the door to the toilet? Power move.
You have to assert dominance somehow.
As someone who actually works in a convenience store, most customers are that rude, also there are often spirits that knock stuff off shelves....its more of a hassle at this point.

"you know, maybe I can deal with the rats, sleep a couple of nights and you'd still be walking in" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Chris why did you have to roast the grandma like that 😂
But then he was sweet to her for about a minute..lol.

"Deliberately checking in a video game just to make whether or not his character accidentally left the stove on before leaving their house." My dudes responsible and notices details, makes this all the more immersive. Nice!
A place you know well + J horror = The best sense of creeping dread in a familiar location

You best be resting and taking care of yourself while sick! ... That said, super happy to have an hour long video to enjoy. Thanks, Chris!
Loving the granny voice Chris 😂 professional status voiceover. Also that toilet was amazing!
Chris: It's always nice to watch something while you eat
Me, watching this with a mouthful of pasta: *nods sagely*
10:32 the sign says 'We'd thank you for keeping the toilets clean - Nokin Panda'. Nokin is a supporter of the game it seems lol.
Most real life night shifts at a convenience store could out scary any fictionalised horror account
I think throwing it in the bin would have been a bad ending too. I feel like it's a chain letter type thing; like 'The Ring'.
I came home after the dullest evening with some friends and decided to watch this, my mood has greatly improved. Slow but fun little game with good jumpscares (my laptop almost fell off my knees twice - the colleague jumpscare and the ghost in the CCTV one), as always greatly improved by your funny commentary.

I imagine every Japanese girl sounds like a British dude in their head.
"Could you not look at me please", laughed so hard when you said that
‘Is he in pain?’ Ghost runs up ‘ohhh I will be’😂😂😂
Chris shaking his head at the old lady lmao I felt it
Poor nan, getting absolutely roasted 😂
Nice spooky shop assistant simulator. The scariest part is the salary of the job 😂😂
And zero healthcare coverage
somebody has experienced dealing with the public regularly 😭
Thanks for playing I really enjoy watching you play the horror games
I like this game it was very interactive. I love the way you interacted with the old lady, I was laughing so hard 😂😂😂 I love your game plays.
wow,this is one of the most entertaining playthroughs i've seen on this channel, and i've watched a lot at this point XD...
the bastard that wanted you to get the beer instead of doing it himself.
the old lady who came all the way here ,just to not buy anything and take a shit in your pristine bathroom XD....
this is worth its weight in gold compared to all the lazy jump scare games!
but outside is WAY TOO DARK! i consider this a issue not a feature!
indoor lights are the only ones that work like they are suppose to!
i cringed when i saw the bike out in the rain...its going to get rust...
i would have chose the trash at the end.
"chilla's art" and there's a chinchilla on the table in your house.

*CJU-* "Did I leave the stove on?"
*Proceeds to leave the front door open*
I've been to Japan. It definitely has parts that look just like the neighborhood. And they also have a 7/11 and Lawsons on like EVERY corner
For a scary game he really makes it funny😂 i just love his videos👌👏❤

43:41 That's when I quit my job..lol
A AC technician who dresses like a surgeon,seems kind of odd.
Acs use harmful gasses to cool the air so they breathing protection
Hey Chris..hope you will feel better soon..and thank you for uploading this!
“Use our deluxe toilet facilities” I’m actually crying
The good ending where you send back the tape gives more story to the game.
I loved this game, it's definitely going on my "Watch Again" list! It's waaay better than Night Shift by Puppet Combo. Glad you're feeling better and well enough to give us these cool videos! :)

*ASMR* 4:04 😋
45:55 53:54 *That was scary* 😨
in japan there are LOADS of cicadas so thats prolly why it sounds like that
Cicadas don't chirp unless its very warm, so its unlikely that they'd be making noise at night-time.
While they don't normally make that much noise at night, that is what those sounds are. xD
@@jlang I hear them almost every summer night?
@@landonk5009 I live in NZ so its not often warm enough for them to be noisy at night. However at the moment it is! So difficult to sleep.
This is my 2nd time watching this. I really hope there's more indie games out there similar to this for you to play. Something about doing a repetitive, boring job with increasingly spooky things happening is unusually entertaining to me.
The co-worker at 32:46 scared the shit out of me lol

I should not be watching this, while being a girl, working overnight, at a convenience store...in the &*/:#÷€ fog!!! What the heck!?
Scarlytte, did you survive? Or did you watch the tape.......
@@irregularassassin6380 I survived! Probably because I don't own a vcr, but I'll take the win.
@Scarlytte Huzzah! Now, the real question is, are you still watching CJU vids late at night working alone in a convenience store?
scarlytte are you still okay
@@yourbootyholeisyourbeautyhole I am. Got fed up and jumped ship to an even creepier occupation in the medical field. I'm now a phlebotomist.
You should have done all three endings. ;oD
Interesting game. Love that rat spray - kills them and makes them disappear!
Thanks for playing, Chris! Hope you're feeling better.
Looks like Chris will have to do a quickie video of the other endings!!!! Great Vid! Glad to see you're back in the saddle!
Fancy toilet but sounds like a demon. And what's wrong with your co worker hiding on you. At least the ghost was helping you out. Thanks for playing.
I worked at a Japanese convenience store for 6 years and I can tell you this is 100% accurate. Also 4 in Japanese is pronounced "shi" which carries the double meaning of "death", kanji is different tho.

CJU's definition of nightmare: toilet is not working
If I were to have any voice in this world there’s no doubt I’d take his.
THANK YOU FOR THE DIFFERENT ENDINGS!!❤❤
Nice night shift mall simulator. Spooky things are typical whoever stood on a night shift duty. I'm sure that encounters with poltergeists and disfigured creepy figures are normal in this line of job :)
This is like The David Lynch Movie Lost Highway with Bill Pullman getting Those Vhs Tapes of His House
19:49 office politics kicking in strong there
Yesssss!!!! I needed this today.

Can't tell what this story was all about but it was quite nice and interesting. Poor old lady...not only that she is foot sick and demented now she is also blinded by your flashlight... very sad.
i remember someone said , "when at night , many houses in Japan turn off their light"
this game almost like in real life
32:52 Dammit, Ken! You made me jump so badly I went to almost the end of the video!
I'll hear this "ding-dong ding-dong ding-dong" in my sleep tonight...
Slow burns are the best burns. What a creepy and interesting game! Will you play the other endings? I'm also gonna recommend the Rusty Lake and Cube Escape series one more time! I really think you'd enjoy the puzzles and the crazy plots.
Only 2 endings, and I do encourage you to mail the tape or look up someone else's play through. We actually learn a few things.
I'm pretty sure the manager was secretly videotaping her at home across the street from the window. He was watching the tapes in that little room. There's a VHS recorder/player and the number 4 means death in several Asian languages. The implication is that she's not the first employee he did this too.
Cicada's I would guess is that hissing noise. They haven't come back but when they do..😵
THE RAT DISSOLVER HAS NO TIME FOR OLD LADY ON A WALKER - THE GAME
Off you pop 😂😂 you made me laugh throughout this haha loved it
Wow I can't imagine not knowing what cicadas sound like! I live in the Midwest USA and they are a constant presence during the summer.
"They're going to steal everything"....lol Chris, this is Japan you're talking about. Theft is very unlikely (though still possible of course)
Been to Japan, they (usually teens/kids) still steal just like everywhere else. I think mainly is, police don’t do anything if it does happen, that includes groping too. :/
@@E-99x Aww, that is unfortunate. I guess I didn't spend much time around kids when I was there. Cheers for the reality check, I appreciate it.
Explain pewds house!!!
Nah, *shop lifting occurs frequently in Japan too.* Especially so in convenience stores. And police don't carry guns. In fear of their own safety(perhaps) they often slack on their job.

Good game, spooky and funny as you play it😁
I really liked this!! it didn't feel dull at all though it took some time to get going, with the different tasks you had to do and different people you interacted with. the scares were really good, and the creepy parts reaaally spooky. I'm guessing not watching any of the tapes isn't an option, so the choice only comes down to the fourth night? I'm curious about the other routes, but I'm very glad you chose the bad ending, because it is a truly terrifying one.
I just found you today when TH-cam recomend ya and you got a new subscriber! You even played NightShift which I love so yay
That buzzing noise is sound of cicadas in summer, sounds like krik krik or maybe nyit nyit at night.
You didn't notice the ghost behind the door of the bathroom at 30:45
Good eye.
@@SoadxWomen when i first saw it during the game it freaked me out lol
Enjoyable game. Cool stuff Chris.
“Carrot Juice” lmao😂
The real horror is how unbothered you were by the extreme brightness and bloom, my poor ultra-light sensitive eyes x.x
That was fun! Thanks CJU! 💖
Fun video! And fyi, passing the video on (you return it to sender) gets you the backstory. A man who used to work at the convenience store murdered his entire family and put nails into his pregnant wife's when he killed her. She quits, and later the store is closed.
I was getting Dead Stock vibes from this. You know, your coworker wasn't even around the last night.
Slow but spooky! I enjoyed it very much!!😁
If I remember it correctly, the Number 4 symbolizes Death in Japan. Wich is quite fitting with that little Room back there.
"What are you waiting for? Punch in"
*Knocks him out*
I ask everyone to watch with the lights switched off.
Worthy.. Believe me
Still a classic.
I have never EVER seen this game without VHS effects on lmao
I think that kid did a snatch and run 😂
