Fragile Reflection begins with a young woman returning to her home in a rural Japanese village, where familiar streets and buildings hide sudden dangers. The player explores the environment, collects items, solves puzzles, and encounters creatures that appear when shifting between dimensions. The village changes as the player moves, forcing them to navigate narrow paths, abandoned houses, and forested areas while managing their health and supplies. Interacting with objects and exploring hidden places gradually reveals fragments of the past, tying the mysteries to Kario Ito’s investigation.
