Thanks to Idea Factory’s launch trailer, we have a fresh look at Charade Maniacs. The otome visual novel is officially available in the west following a previous Japanese appearance.
Further information is included in the following overview:
A mysterious figure abducts Hiyori Sena, transporting her to a strange world with nine other abductees and welcomes them to a world called Arcadia.
Everyone must act out “dramas” for a chance to escape, all whilst avoiding the trappings of a traitor.
From the writer of Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly, Uta Amamiya, and the illustrator of Norn9, Teita, who’s hand will she take at the end?
Originally released only in Japan, the eccentric cast returns to the stage on the Nintendo Switch!
