How does MIKI-CHAN connect to the BrokenLore series?
Steam categorizes MIKI-CHAN within the BrokenLore franchise. Serafini Productions’ official announcements for DON’T WATCH describe that game as a series chapter and mention LOW, FOLLOW, and UNFOLLOW. The DON’T LIE community page also presents its game as part of BrokenLore and points players interested in more of the interconnected universe toward DON’T WATCH and Shinji’s story.
These pages establish a broader series and interconnected-universe context, but they do not establish that MIKI-CHAN is a direct sequel to a particular entry, that every game shares one continuous plot, or that players must finish another title first.

Quick Recap
Best Value

- A stellar voice cast, starring Valerie Rose Lohman (What Remains of Edith Finch, Wolfenstein: Youngblood), Jonah Scott (Dying Light 2: Stay Human, Date Everything), and Aleks Le (Persona 3: Reload, Marvel Rivals, Ghost of Yotei).
- A beautifully dynamic and haunting soundtrack composed and performed by Jacob Noska, and Jonah Henthorne: members of the band Auric Echoes.
- The puzzles you encounter are more than your standard key hunt. Project Songbird rewards those with an eye for detail, making each puzzle a challenge of creativity and wits.
- The combat of Project Songbird offers a variety of approaches inspired by the classics of the survival horror genre. Melee and gunplay is slow and weighty, and ammo is incredibly scarce. However, combat isn't your only option, as you have a multitude of tools at your disposal to aid in sneaking past any creatures that wish to do you harm.
