About

This is a role-playing adventure game set during World War I in a world blending historical and supernatural elements. Core gameplay revolves around tactical combat using the Judgment Ring system, where timing and accuracy determine attack success, alongside new team-based combo mechanics. The story follows Yuri, whose weakened shape-shifting abilities due to a curse drive him and his allies—including a puppet master and a German soldier—to uncover a cult exploiting the war for global domination.
