Irisu Syndrome! (いりす症候群!, Irisu Shoukougun!) is a freeware physics puzzle game created by Japanese developer wtatsu, starring a cute bunny girl Irisu Kyouko.

The gameplay involves shapes of various colors falling down in a tetris-like play field. Shoot white and gray blocks to direct the colored blocks to others of the same color (either among the falling ones or from the ones on the floor) to make them disappear and score points. However, each block that falls and didn't disappear inflicts damage to your health bar, and losing all health spells Game Over. Thankfully, you recover some health each time you score points.

The story involves four university students —Irisu, Uuji, Ageha and Edogawa— on a camping trip. As you progress deeper into the game and reach various score "milestones", you'll find out more about the events that unfold during said trip and what happens to the four.

The game can be downloaded here, with a fan-made English patch here. An updated version titled Irisu Syndrome! Metsu has also been released, containing the original game alongside the new Metsu Mode with different gameplay that can be unlocked to continue the story left off from the previous mode. You can download it here. A "colorblind fix" for those having trouble playing Metsu Mode is available here.

To venture deeper into the forest, you can follow this path. Please proceed with extra caution.

  • Lost Forever: The Level 100 unlockable for normal mode would become unobtainable once you go to the Metsu mode title screen. There's a plot-relevant reason for this.

  • Nintendo Hard: When the creator calls it "Instant-death puzzle game", you should've seen this trope coming.
  • Older Than They Look: Although the characters are supposed to be university students, the artstyle makes them look a few years younger.
  • Puzzle Game: More precisely, "Instant-death puzzle game".
  • Scary Surprise Party: Happy birthday, Ageha! Haha, that sure was some prank, huh? There's possibly more to it, though.
