This page is for manual install only. We highly recommend using the automated installer as installing manually can be error prone. Please see the Cross Platform Installer, and follow the instructions
Note: The full patch lets you switch between the Ryukishi (Original), Mangagamer, or PS3 sprites. If you want Ryukishi (Original) or Mangagamer sprites with the new backgrounds, most likely you want the full patch (Automatic Install / Manual Install). After installing the full patch (NOT the 'voice only' patch on this page), press the
P
key while not in a menu to toggle between art styles.We currently do not support toggling background style with the full patch, so if you must have the Ryukishi (Original) style backgrounds, you must use this voice-only patch.
The voice-only patch makes the bare minimum changes to add voices to the vanilla game.
We do not offer end-user support for the voice-only patch.
If you encounter bugs or missing features, we probably won't help you with it.
The exception to this rule is when we are releasing a new episode. Usually we do a quick voice-only patch just after the game comes out. Later we release the full graphics patch. During this time, when the voice only patch is available, we will offer support for it.
Installing the patch automatically¶
We highly recommend using the installer:

Our long term plans are to have a 'voice-only' mode in the full patch, which would make the standalone voice-only patches redundant.

Higurashi When They Cry Hou
he 58th year of Shouwa, early summer
It's June, and the summer heat has arrived earlier than it does most years.
By day there are crickets, and by night there are cicadas.
We're in Hinamizawa, a small village in the countryside.
There are fewer than two thousand people here. But every year, there is an event.
This event is a mysterious death.
(The series has run from 1979 to 1983)
On a certain day in June, someone dies, and someone else goes missing.
The series of deaths is connected to the upheaval surrounding the dam construction project.
A murder case that was covered up is being reenacted.
Is it a conspiracy? A coincidence? Or perhaps a curse?
Someone who was supposed to be there isn't.
Someone who wasn't supposed to be there is.
Someone who was alive last night is dead now.
And someone who is here right now isn't alive.
So, there is no way to avert tragedy. There is no choice but to give up.
But don't give up.
Only you can stand up to this.
