Welcome to Noise Scramble City—a maze-like metropolis reminiscent of Tokyo. Six young individuals awaken downtown in a mental prison of their own making with no memory of their arrival. Now they must solve intricate mysteries to piece together fragments of their pasts and ultimately escape this enigmatic alternate reality.

In the demo, play as Hiyori, a popular content creator with a habit of telling white lies to garner attention. Connect Hiyori’s past traumas with her deceitful tendencies across abstract, story-rich puzzles filled with narrative-rich tidbits weaved into every brainteaser.

Today marks the beginning of the “Be Part of Type-NOISE: Shonen Shojo” Campaign event.
