Choices unavailable in the first playthrough become accessible starting in the second.
Your decisions shape the story, creating divergent paths right from the beginning. Use the power of restarting to defy an inescapable fate.
The story follows a high schooler obsessed with a popular livestreamer and their oddball companion.
When they learn their favorite idol is destined to vanish, they use their special ability to glimpse memories and dive into investigating the mysterious case. But…
Players control the protagonist during the 10 days leading up to the idol’s disappearance.
You can raise your stats, interact with characters, or delve into people's memories to uncover clues about the case.However, you only have 10 days, and stopping the disappearance is a formidable challenge.
And then the inevitable happens… The idol disappears. But immediately after, the protagonists find themselves sent back 10 days, retaining all their memories.To view someone's memories, you must defeat the sci-fi beasts lurking within their memory world.
Why have these sci-fi beasts suddenly started appearing in memories? What are they, really?
The story slowly unveils the truth behind their existence as it progresses.
Simply viewing memories won't solve the case.
Using the clues you've discovered, you must further investigate the situation and sometimes negotiate with others to uncover the key to resolving the mystery.
