Bloomtown is a quiet and cozy American suburb, but this is only a façade – a demon world is growing beneath the surface, children are disappearing, and it’s up to you to save the town! Playing as Emily and her younger brother Chester on summer vacation, you’ll tame monsters from the Underside and create your own demon-hunting squad with unique team synergies.
Make the most of your summer holiday adventure! Explore the city’s secret areas, exercise at the gym, work at the grocery store, take up gardening, or make resourceful friends. The decisions – and the adventure – are yours!
Key Features
A New JRPG Adventure: Inspired by beloved classics like the Persona series and Earthbound, Bloomtown balances social life with demon taming, pulse-pounding turn-based combat, and a gripping story. It’s up to Emily to figure out the mysteries of mystical disappearances and save the townsfolk’s souls!
Two Worlds Collide: Enter the dark Underside which lurks upon the children of Bloomtown. Encounter the inner demons of the townsfolk brought to life as monstrous manifestations of fear and vices.
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work: Use your own demons’ and allies' unique abilities to defeat fiends and dungeon bosses in turn-based, tactical battles.
Capture & Tame Demons: Weaken unique demons to capture and add to your own demon-hunting squad. Level up your demons and fuse them to create powerful synergies for battling in the Underside.
A Summer Vacation to Remember: Fighting demons won’t take up all your time in Bloomtown! Explore the town, pick up jobs, make friends or take it easy - how you spend your time is up to you.
