This Pixelated Mystery Adventure Game Where You Solve Japanese Urban Legends Is Out

Publisher SHUEISHA GAMES has announced that Urban Myth Dissolution Center, an adventure/visual novel game with retro-style pixelated graphics, has officially been launched. 

If you missed our article about the game, it was created by the Japanese game studio Hakababunko, whose members are long-time aficionados of mystery-themed content. As Azami, a new member of the Urban Myth Dissolution Center, you'll need to conduct detective work by collecting circumstantial evidence and delving into social network posts to unveil the truth behind each urban legend.
