Human Farm Investigation Iori — Undercover Protagonist

Playing the policewoman at the center of the investigation.

Last updated:

Who is Iori?

Iori is the player character in Human Farm : Investigation :, an mature policewoman assigned to infiltrate an illegal underground human farm while maintaining cover as ordinary staff. She reports to police allies Maria, Rui, and Tsubaki, works daily shifts with farm residents Aina and Karen, and navigates authority from the Boss pastry chef. City contact Alice draws her into performance-district investigation beats.

Developed by とっくり海月 and published by 072 Project on Steam (app 3953160, August 7, 2026), the game is the third Human Farm series entry. Iori’s arc spans thirty-four story events and five or more endings.

Player role

You direct Iori’s daily schedule: farm labor, city quests, evening scenes, and police reporting. Unlike action RPGs, success is calendar discipline — see How to Play and Beginner Tips.

Iori does not have a customizable name or appearance in standard builds; choices are dialogue and priority based.

Cover identity

Iori poses as new farm help. Gameplay expresses cover through:

  • Completing farm-shift and maintenance tasks — Underground Farm
  • Avoiding contradictory statements to Boss and workers
  • Limiting suspicious topside behavior during daylight

Cover interacts with suspicion meters in Investigation Mechanics. Blown cover routes exist — Ending Routes — and exclude true ending unless loading older saves.

Investigation duty

Iori must gather evidence via City Quests, deliver items in Items, and meet Tsubaki deadlines. Neglecting police work produces incomplete investigation endings even if farm social routes flourish.

Balancing handlers is core tension: Maria and Rui both demand time; favoring one shifts epilogue emphasis.

Scene roster involving Iori

As protagonist, Iori appears in all thirty-four story events either as focus or viewpoint. Unlock rules: How to Unlock Scenes. Gallery unlocker replays do not set story flags — Cheats and Unlockers.

Personal introspection scenes often gate late-game resolve choices on final nights.

Ending impact

Iori’s accumulated flags determine which of five-plus finales play:

  • Investigation completeness
  • Cover status
  • Handler and farm relationships

Thematic notes (gameplay framed)

Iori’s story examines duty vs personal cost in undercover work. Full Review discusses narrative delivery; Should You Buy covers audience fit.

Iori is only as effective as your schedule — treat every day as both worker and officer.

Iori save hygiene

Label saves before handler splits that offer contradictory cover choices. Iori flag branches are difficult to merge later — keep one rollback slot per major police appointment week.

Protagonist route hygiene

When handlers offer contradictory instructions, screenshot the quest log before choosing. Iori branches rarely merge cleanly after mid-game splits.

Daily log discipline

Note handler message order each morning. Iori routes fail silently when Tsubaki deadlines expire while farm chores still appear optional.
