You take the role of a Puppeteer guiding Charlotte, a puppet navigating a surreal world. At school, she meets C, a bullied student, and becomes caught up in events that blur ordinary life with unsettling, dreamlike imagery.
Explore locations, talk with characters, read dialogue, make choices, and solve puzzles as the story unfolds. Some encounters use a battle or socialization system, alongside the game's exploration and visual-novel-style scenes.
This second episode of the Hello Charlotte series continues its cast's story as a standalone installment. Multiple endings and a narrative conveyed through symbols, repeated imagery, and conversations shape how the episode progresses.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its layered, symbolic story, memorable characters, distinctive art, and atmospheric music. Many describe it as an emotionally affecting experience that gives them ideas to reflect on, while some find its plot difficult to follow and its gameplay simple or frustrating.
Hello, new Puppeteer!
Meet Charlotte — a Puppet you will control. Meet her alien friends, maggot cat and a certain Observer.
Dive deep into horrors of junk food, TV world, religion and romance novels for middle-aged women. Keep your puppet safe at all times. Or don't.
Have fun dying!

Hello Charlotte games:
Hello Charlotte EP1 (2015) is a story about a memory of long-gone gods and loss of individuality, where your Puppet's new friend goes missing among the static.
Hello Charlotte EP2 (2016) is a story lamenting the impossibility of universal happiness, and idolization of those out of our reach. As her mind unravels, ink will flow, and blood-red flowers will bloom in the desolate field.
Hello Charlotte: Delirium (2017) is a spin-off minigame made to test some of the RPG Maker features. It's a red herring.
Hello Charlotte EP3 (2018) is the final story in the series, serving as a prologue and an epilogue to the main plot. A prosumer noise machine, a virulent insect, an obscene revelation — and an earnest thank you.
