An overview of the title is as follows:
It was just another seemingly ordinary day in Shibuya, but not for Rindo. He could tell something about the city felt different. A girl with an ominous aura appears before him, identifying herself as a so-called Reaper. With some trepidation, Rindo decides to play along with this Reapers’ Game, but something is weird…
Battles with monsters called “the Noise”, pins that grant mysterious powers, and a place called Shibuya UG (Underground) to set the stage for the Game—it isn’t long until Rindo starts to have second thoughts on his decision.
Features include:
- Delve into a vividly illustrated Shibuya, animated with style, music and monsters.
- Collect and wield hundreds of Psych abilities to battle surreal threats.
- Investigate the world around you and beat the “Reapers’ Game” to survive.
