The peaceful world of Trickcal: Mochimochi Hoppe Daisakusen has been shattered. On June 12, players logging in found a letter reading 'Your spacetime will end soon!' and the official YouTube channel began deleting videos one after another with no explanation. The game, set in the deathless world of Aelius where characters survive even direct axe hits and mercury poisoning, has long hidden ominous hints like red eyes in the background of battle maps. Now the elf Rinua, normally a part-time theater worker, has fallen to the dark side and declared she will destroy spacetime. The developers appear to be running a full-scale end-of-the-world event, turning the healing game into something unsettling.
