Idea Factory’s Otomate brand has launched the smartphone version of the otome game Cendrillon palikA in Japan. The game is priced at JPY$3,800 and will have the same features as the Nintendo Switch version.
The story of Cendrillon palikA takes place in a beautiful “transparent city” made out of glass, which holds a curse. They cannot leave the city unless they wear something that is made of glass. However, even if you leave the city, not returning by midnight would turn you into a glass statue in a painful and agonizing death.
A girl who lives in this town suddenly earns a single glass slipper and is given one task: To change the Judgment Astrolabe located in the center of the city, in hopes of dispelling the curse. The other pair was given to six different men and a card. She knows nothing of the truth of the curse or the feelings surrounding the glass slippers either. But with numerous tears and fate overlapping, the curtain opens on this beautiful and sad story.
