What is Quiet Express: Cabin 909?
"Do you know anything about Cabin 909?"
Quiet Express: Cabin 909 is a train-journey adventure game where you board and travel on the "Quiet Express," a train that takes seven days to cross the continent.
You will explore the train in search of "Cabin 909," a room that theoretically does not exist. Passenger cars, dining cars, botanical gardens... as various train cars connect one after another, the Quiet Express moves toward the western coast of the continent.
During your journey, you will meet various passengers and catch glimpses into their lives. By listening to their stories and completing their requests, the mystery of Cabin 909 will slowly reveal itself.
Game Features
The Train's Mysteries and Rearranging Cars
*You wake up in the passenger car at the very rear of the Quiet Express with a goal to reach the front locomotive
*What kind of car lies beyond the door? Three types of cars—such as passenger cars, dining cars, or cargo cars—are randomly drawn, and you must choose one from among them
*Items found through exploration may help you reroll your choices or even add a fourth option
*Rearranging the order of the train cars might open up passages you haven't seen before. Heavily locked doors, switches that do nothing when pressed, a secret attic... numerous mysteries are hidden within the "Quiet Express."
Encounters With Unique Passengers
Beastmen, giants, homunculi... in this world, diverse races coexist. The long era of conflict and discrimination has ended. Even so, they still carry their own individual anxieties. Some face difficulties in life specifically due to their race.
Why did these people board the Quiet Express? By listening to the passengers and uncovering the stories of their lives, you might be able to change their tomorrows just a little bit. And that, in turn, will connect back to your own objective.
The Repeating 7 Days
The Quiet Express was supposed to reach its final destination on the seventh day.
However, right before arriving, the train gets caught in a catastrophic accident. The cars burst into flames, and no help arrives. Every single passenger and crew member loses their life right then and there.
Yet, the next time you open your eyes, you are back inside the Quiet Express just as it has departed the starting station. Time has wound back seven days, and the train is heading west once again. But at this rate, the train will only get caught in the accident again in seven days. You must find a way to prevent the accident before reaching the final station.
As you repeat these seven days over and over, you will gradually move closer to the truth behind this loop.
A Story to Find Cabin 909, Which Shouldn't Exist
You are searching for "Cabin 909" on the Quiet Express. No such room exists on the train, and neither the passengers nor even the conductor know of its existence.
Where is Cabin 909, and what happened there in the past? Furthermore, why are you searching for Cabin 909 in the first place? There are other mysteries as well. Why does time rewind every time you die, repeating the seven days? Why are you able to choose which train car appears beyond the door?
Eventually, all of these mysteries will guide you toward a single conclusion.
