A Perfect Day Pocket – Go back to 1999 is a new title on Android by Littoral Games. If you’ve played their previous games Growing Up and Chinese Parents, you’ll get the same cosy vibe from this one too. The art-style is also pretty similar to Growing Up with water-coloured hand-painted visuals that are strong enough to narrate the story on their own.
For launch week, A Perfect Day – Go back to 1999 is available at $1.99 from February 27th to March 5th. Post that, it will be $2.99 on Android. And if you pre-registered for the game, you can claim a Panda Quake Mini 4WD by visiting Brother Cao at the Youth Palace. A limited-time Easter egg, the Old Uniform, can also be found in ‘My Bedroom’ until March 26th.
So, What’s the Premise of A Perfect Day – Go Back to 1999?
The name already suggests that you go back to the year 1999, which is another speciality of Littoral Games. They bring these nostalgic stories set in the 90s and early 2000s. In this game, you relive the last day of 1999 in a time-loop narrative puzzle.
A Perfect Day – Go Back to 1999 features seven time segments, eleven main characters, twenty event cards and one free DLC. You control an elementary schoolboy stuck in a time loop like Groundhog Day.
The day you’re stuck in is the last day of the year—December 31st, 1999. In the loop, you uncover secrets about classmates, friends and family while trying to help everyone experience their ‘perfect day.’
Repeat, revisit and rewrite
The game focuses on memories, regrets, and choices. You can revisit childhood friendships, explore the lives of their young parents and make decisions that shape the story. The narrative follows an interconnected structure, allowing different outcomes as you repeat the same day.
A Perfect Day also includes several mini-games, such as a Mini 4WD race, a Gamicom console and an arcade, capturing the feel of 90s gaming. With interactive storytelling and nostalgic visuals, the game is worth giving a try.
