A downloadable visual novel for Windows and macOS

Plot

Twelve Ultimate-level students arrive at Hope's Valley Military Academy to serve as its founding class in a new program devised by society's brightest minds. The training's objective is noble: to create Ultimates capable of resisting the Killing Games, rooting out Agents of Despair, and surviving to carry on those techniques.

Victor Leeds, the Ultimate Researcher, enters into the game, only to be presented with a mind-bending set of twists right out the gate from his closest subordinate: that he's the creator of the game, he's given himself partial amnesia, and that all of the other participants are automatons created in his own laboratory!

Who can Victor trust? For that matter, can he even trust himself?

The arrival of Atarukuma-- a familiar bear redressed in soldier camouflage- signals the start of a new Killing Game! This Killing Game could have the lowest stakes in history, or it could mean the end of all of humanity's brightest minds in one fell swoop, heralding in a new age of Despair!

This game contains spoilers for Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. It does not contain spoilers for the other games in the Danganronpa franchise.



Content

This game will contain:

  • Some strong language
  • Blood and violence
  • Adult themes in text and images, but will not contain actual sexual scenarios

Current time to play is estimated at about 3.5-4 hours if reading manually, longer if reading on auto.

Progress

As of 7/30/22, Chapter 1 Daily Life has been released! It's not quite everything up to the murder but I cut it just a bit short of that so everyone can enjoy a little honeymoon period with all the characters being alive.

Look forward to the release of Chapter 1 Killing Life in 2024!
