A boy thirsting for power, and a girl who has lost her memory. In the twisted world of Valhalla, what destiny awaits them?
This game is a mobile game app that was exclusively released for Japanese flip phones.
It inherits popular game systems from the Shin Megami Tensei series, such as a system that allows you to communicate with demons and recruit them as allies, a system where you can fuse allied demons together to create more powerful ones, and a system where the protagonist’s alignment shifts between “LAW” and “CHAOS” based on his actions.
Set in the near-future city of TOKYO Millennium, built after the Great Destruction, the game follows a boy living in the slums of “Valhalla,” a residential area of the city.
One day, after being spotted by the Temple Knights during a fight, the boy is pursued. He then meets a mysterious man through a friend who offers to help him grow stronger, on the condition that the boy defeats the ruler of Valhalla, who controls the people. In exchange, the boy receives a “COMP.”
To train, the boy descends into the old underground city, where demons roam, and encounters a mysterious girl who has lost her memory.
What will the fate of these two characters be as their story unfolds?
Key Features
- The game not only features demon fusion (“Demon x Demon”) but also allows players to fuse demons with swords to create powerful weapons.
- By using specific items for “Sword Fusion,” players can fuse demons with swords (“Demon x Sword”) or even fuse swords with other swords (“Sword x Sword”). The powerful swords created through this process can be equipped by the protagonist to enhance their strength.
- As players navigate crucial events throughout the story, each decision they make will dramatically shape the course of the narrative, ultimately determining the fate that awaits them at the end.
