Individual developer Yume Akizuki released the mystery adventure game Trick x Trick for PC via Steam on August 15. Twelve high school students with psychic powers wake in a building and must find a mastermind by vote or assassination. The game features real-time discussion, over 200,000 characters of scenario text, and an estimated 15-hour playtime.
Trick x Trick is now available on Steam for 1,500 yen, with a 20 percent launch discount bringing it to 1,200 yen. The game is the work of solo developer Yume Akizuki, who credits Danganronpa and Ace Attorney as formative influences.
The premise strands 12 high school students in an unfamiliar building under a single rule: find the mastermind. Naming the wrong person triggers an execution, so players must either expose the culprit by vote or assassinate them. Each student carries a distinct psychic power, and those powers are tied to the incidents and tricks that unfold.
After each incident, a discussion phase runs automatically in real time. Players spot lies and contradictions in the conversation and present evidence to refute them. The scenario text exceeds 200,000 characters, with a clear time around 15 hours.
The cast was selected through an anonymous audition process, hiding applicant information, with roughly 3,000 applications. Koyori Nohana voices protagonist Tsuguto Amami, joined by Tetu Kaminagi, Molte Hikou, and Selha Oto Yume. Hololive VTuber Polka Omaru voices the mascot character Usapon.
