▍Story
The game centers around the god of Norse mythology Loki, who meets a genus high schooler Mahiro on earth. Their story starts as they join the drama club in Nakatsu Gakuin High School and develop bonds with other club members.
▍Gameplay
The game features a text-based story for players to follow the growth path of the character as they strive to become a stage actor.
Players can enjoy the dramatic performance of the voice actors as the stage performance inside the main story is presented with binaural recording. It is known to create a 3-D stereo sound sensation for the listener of actually being in the room with the performers or instruments.
Players have to solve the in-game puzzle in order to enhance the intimacy level of the characters and unlock their side story.
