主公請躺好

【Foreword】 All the world's a stage, yet homeward lies the heart. This story is purely fictional. Any resemblance to reality— may not be coincidence, but rather a reflection of choices we’ve all faced at similar crossroads in our lives. Protagonist is an interactive game about anti-conditioning, portraying a theatrical journey of pretense and self-redemption. The script is written by the system, but the ending is determined by your own principles. Campus performance mixed with light suspense forms the core of this story. It focuses on real-world growth, breaking away from conventional romance-driven storytelling. It is, above all, a documentary poem dedicated to every young person struggling between ideals and reality. The game revolves entirely around performance. It is about acting—but not only about acting. It is also about pretense, but ultimately about—how to preserve a sliver of authenticity in a life where pretense is unavoidable. 【Story Background】 Welcome to the Master Class of Jinglin Academy of Performing Arts. Known as the "Whampoa Military Academy of Stardom," it is the stairway to glory countless dreamers long to ascend. But remember—the spotlight never illuminates the truth; it only casts shadows. In this game, you will step into the role of "Lusheng," the one who enters the game. The moment you cross the school gate, you are no longer a spectator. You become part of the stage. Everyone here is playing a role—including you yourself. Their smiles are part of the script. Their tears are rehearsed. Their embraces may be setup for the next act. Always remember: Every word they speak is dialogue. Every tear they shed is a prop. Every look they give you is waiting for your response. The system is watching you. It does not speak, but it records. It records whether you applaud at the right moment, whether you cry on cue, whether you reveal your true self during "improvisation." The rules are conditioning you. There are penalties for lateness and penalties for early departure. But the most severe punishment is this—you forget you are acting. If you start believing they love you, if you start feeling you belong here, if you look in the mirror late at night and no longer recognize your own expression… Then you have already fallen into the trap. Beneath the trap is not a stage, nor an escape route—it is the abyss. You must stay vigilant amidst the lies. Hear the truth between the lines of dialogue. Find, within the margins of the script, the self that has yet to be assigned a role. Welcome, freshman. Please take your script. 【Game Features】 Deep Role-Playing: Maintain multiple facades.
