A blog dedicated to “CHERA -A Flower In The Dark” and “Lost Smile and Strange Circus”! Currently working to translate CHERA the best I can!

Hii can I ask where I can download Lost Smile and Strange Circus game? I'm on Android, but I don't know what app store should I trust :(

Hello there delicious friend! Thank you so much for reach out to me about this, I always love to help more people play this game again!

I must prewarn by saying; depending on the model of your phone, the game may not run at all. Newer models have trouble running older apps, and so if you are on a newer android device, it may just not work. You can find a few good APK/Android emulators for computers if that is the case though!

My go-to for LSaSC and CHERA is usually APKPure, though the copy of the APK from Softtonic does also appear to work very well! Do bare in mind both sites have ads though, so you may want an ad blocker while you are downloading!

Don't be afraid to reach out further if you have any questions or comments!!

Its so hard to get LSASC and CHERA on my new phone :(

Does anyone know how to prevent android popping up with the "app too old" alert?

[oddmann]

Hello! Are there still plans to translate CHERA? It could be incredible, but it's understandable if not.

Have a great day!

Hello There!!

I am! I've been working slowly but surely on getting it done, though as I'm the only one doing it, its taking a long while I'm afraid.

I am hoping to have some help, but as of yet I've not found anyone as passionate about it as me, so unfortunately just me at the moment!

Hopefully I'll be able to get some help and make a translated APK hack, or something similar to that!

[oddmann]

I’m hoping to find a better way to comprise the translations. Especially now that the game is so hard to get your hands on, I don’t want it to become lost media.

This game, and especially the character Oddman, has been such a big and important part of me.

Does anyone know how to make hacks/translations? Perhaps we could put on together?

These two sprites from CHERA are so cute to me. He’s such a sweetheart :(

Also give me an excuse to post this

heyyyyyy lost smile fandom. i hope you see this on time

So SeecInc, the ones who made the game, are taking a lot of their old games off the appstore in about a day after this post goes out. This includes both the English and Japanese versions of Lost Smile, as well as Flower of Chera.

(Official twitter announcement link below)

If you have not already, be sure to download any of the soon-to-be-discontinued apps before they are taken down the appstore. While they won't be available for download, if you currently have/have had them, you should still be able to play and/or redownload them after discontinuation (not 100% guaranteed though).

The link in the tweet goes to their website's news post where everything that is being discontinued is listed.

over and out, lost smile fandom🫡 it was bound to happen eventually

Edit: my advice is mainly for iOS users. Android users can still get APKs for the games.

[oddmann]

Hello everyone! It's been bought to my attention by another fan of LSASC and CHERA that the games will be pulled from the app stores on the 22nd! This will also include other old Seec Inc games. Do not fret though! Not only will you still be able to download them up until that point, there are still ways to acquire them once they are pulled! Your main (and best bet) is an APK. There are IOS versions of this, but I do not know how well they work, if at all. APKs can be downloaded on most androids and on bluestacks! Please note though!! Some newer phones can not run LSASC as an APK at all, so I recommend downloading it now rather than waiting. This blog will continue, and will contain as much about LSASC and CHERA as I can possibly hold, so if you aren't able to grab them before the pull, do not fear!!

CHERA -A Flower In The Dark Intro Translation!

Note! This translation is not direct/literal, and is reworded the best I can muster for English speaking players! If you think any translations are inaccurate or could be improved, please let me know!

“This game contains some violent scenes and cruel language for directing reasons. Thank you for your understanding.”

“In addition, we recommend playing with sound in order to enjoy the game.”

Introduction translation begins under cut!

“It’s a story from a long time ago. || Where I came across a girl who always smiles.”

“The girl lived in a place called ‘The Black Town’ || This city was one where bad people lived, people who hurt the girl, and despite it all || the girl never stopped smiling”

“One day, the girl was on the outskirts of town, picking the blooming flowers || I don’t know the name, but the flower was beautiful || it was the girl’s favourite flower”

“On the way back from the outskirts of town, all around her suddenly became very dark. || This darkness made her very lost. || No matter where you look, there’s no light you can see. || As she walked in search of an exit, she heard a voice”

“ ‘What is that?’ ”

“That’s when he appeared quietly || he was a man with a strange head”

Next -> (Chapter 1: The Girl and The Resident of Darkness) // To Be Translated

Due to this translation transcript being unfortunately lost, I’m currently working on my own version.

I plan to translate it more in a storytelling sense than direct, literal translation, as translating any game literally can cause a bit of lost storytelling.
