About

168 days left before the world concludes… Humanity is nearing its final chapter. The brutal assassination of a spiritual leader in a nation with end-times beliefs… A thrilling amalgamation of five puzzle games, all revolving around a gripping tale shrouded in secrets and enigmas.

Story

“168 remaining until the end of the world…”

Humanity is approaching its end.

In a world shrouded by desolation and turmoil, an unusual religious sect known as the Shuten Order arises, longing for the extinction of mankind. Swiftly amassing believers, they eventually establish their own nation-state, named Shuten.

A terrible event unfolds at the grand celebration marking the birth of their nation – the head of the Shuten Order meets an untimely demise. Shortly after, our main character regains consciousness, only to find themselves in an unusual situation: two individuals claiming to be angels appear before them. They disclose a startling revelation – the protagonist is none other than the deceased Founder, brought back to life through divine power. Yet, the revival falls short – their memories are lost, and they’re given just four days to live.

To survive, the protagonist must overcome “God’s trial”: identify and kill their murderer.

Under the pressure of time, our main character, known as Rei, plunges into the bustling metropolis on a detective mission. The potential culprits? Five high-ranking members of the Shuten Order. Due to the tight schedule, it’s impossible to examine them all thoroughly. Tough decisions must be made, and the path to uncovering the truth often requires making sacrifices.

Who killed the Founder? For what reason? Can the mission be fulfilled before time runs out?

Thus begins a high-stakes, four-day hunt for the truth.
