// The story

Kill (exterminate, destroy) your enemies — or just kiss them to make a loving world.

It's a narrative solo game. The story is between you and the developer. The ending depends on your karma.

// History

Started in 1998 by Yoshiro Takahashi & his team for the SEGA Dreamcast. When Sega killed the Dreamcast, the game was aborted.

In 2017, Yosuke Takahashi (Yoshiro's son) decided to finish his father's game. With overGame Studio, it's finally done.

What the press said

Real clippings. We didn't make these up — they did.

"Perhaps the most absurdly metaphysical experience in gaming… an addictive video game first and foremost."
TheXboxHub 4 / 5
"I've never played anything as odd, unnerving, intriguing or downright mad as this. A unique experience that will stay with you."
Xbox Tavern 6.1 / 10
"Jodida y absolutamente divertido, sorprendente, sinvergüenza, hilarante y original."
Generación Xbox 9.7 / 10
"Quite certainly the most absurd console game of the generation."
DayOne
"A 'Punk Narrative Shoot-Them-Up' that blends gameplay choices with surreal visuals and uncomfortably thought-provoking ideas."
Metacritic — critics 80
