▍Overview
The game follows Tachibana Kisa, a girl attending prestigious male-only academy “Universe Drama School” where the students play both male and female parts, referred to as “Jacks” and “Jeannes” respectively. There, she must conceal her secret while fighting her way to the top – in other words, the lead role in the last play of the year.
“Tokyo Ghoul” author Sui Ishida is credited with the original work and character designs. He also created on the world design, in-game illustrations, and inserted song lyrics for the game. “Tokyo Ghoul” light novel series writer Shin Towad worked on the game’s scenario alongside Ishida. The project also reveals plans for an anime adaptation, CD and mobile game.
