About Tokyo Stories

This is a 3D adventure game featuring “a visual expression that combines pixel art and 3D” with the slogan “The story of a girl continues on in the city where she went missing.”

The main character wanders around in a disappearing Tokyo to search for her best friend who has somehow disappeared.

The game is created by the renowned creators of “rain/Lost in the rain (PS3 / Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.)”, which has won multiple awards including IGN’s “BEST PLAYSTATION3 GAME”. The music is produced by the up-and-coming composer “newly” and expresses an unprecedented view of the world.
