The premise, in the publisher's words

The game is inspired by the literary world and life of Franz Kafka, as well as his various works. Among them, The Metamorphosis and The Judgment are the most representative, both closely related to Kafka’s lifelong difficulties with his father. The Metamorphosis, in particular, resonates with people worldwide as it depicts the struggles of an eldest son who transforms into a vermin. In Kafka's Metamorphosis, the novella serves as the central motif, focusing on Kafka and Gregor Samsa’s familial issues. The key difference is that Kafka's story emphasizes the conflict between his identity as a writer and his father's expectations.
