Danganlike, Ahoy: Yurukill is like Danganronpa x Zero Escape x occasionally a Top-Down Shoot-em-up

Yurukill: The Calumniation Games is a visual novel focused on a set of murder mysteries mixed in with an overall death game, and if that doesn’t already give you an inkling of what might’ve inspired it, I think some screenshots will HEAVILY CONFIRM your suspicions.

Howa bout the animated cut-ins whenever you make an counter-argument during a debate?

Or how about the animal-themed mascot character who always sounds happy to be tormenting you and who speaks in frequent puns?

Oh, what about some mini-games that have you choosing a specific lane/direction as you attempt to answer questions correctly? 

So yeah, it seems clear that Danganronpa is among Yurukill’s most obvious inspirations. That influence is out on front street, but don’t worry: It’s not like it’s aping DR all the way through. FAR from it, in fact!

First, the setup: A group of five convicted prisoners have are taken to “Yurukill Land,” a supposed “amusement park” on an island owned by Yurukill, Inc. Yurukill is a massive but secretive corporation that most people have never heard of. They create “opportunities” for convicts as well as “entertainment” for unknown parties in the form of the games at Yurukill Land. 

What do these games entail? 

Firstly: To be brought into the games, a prisoner must consistently claim they are innocent of their charges despite their conviction. 

Second: Each prisoner is paired with an “executioner” who is somehow connected to that prisoner’s criminal case. The executioner has control of a button that will instantly inject poison into the prisoner’s neck — and the executioner can push this button at any time they so desire. 

Third: Together, the each pair of prisoner and executioner must make their way through an “attraction” that operates like a series of escape rooms full of puzzles and possible dangers. (So there’s the “Zero Escape” element, because the puzzles herein ESPECIALLY invoke the feel of that series. But they’re usually shorter than most of that series’ escape rooms.)

And finally: At the end of each attraction along the journey awaits the “Brain Reality” (a.k.a. “BR”. This is a virtual reality experience wherein the prisoner will be made to pilot a virtual ship into “combat” against the willpower and mental blocks of his/her executioner. But the executioner is FAR from defenseless — they get a much bigger ship of their own to fight back with! For the executioner, this confrontation is harmless. For the prisoner? Not so much — death in the simulation can literally kill them in reality. But this confrontation is the only way a prisoner can force their ideas and opinions into their executioner’s mind, thereby saving themselves from the insta-kill button.

Why would the prisoner/executioner put themselves through all this crap? Well, because the pair that makes it to the end of the Yurukill games with both parties still alive gets A) the prisoner’s conviction overturned and B) one wish of the executioner granted (...so long as it’s something that’s actually possible for a corporation to achieve). But be advised: Only ONE pair can win.

That last bullet point I mentioned above is the one that REALLY takes this from a oddball “Dangan-like” to something VERY distinctive. Because instead of having a “Class Trial” at the end of each chapter, we wrap them each with *DRUMROLL* a lengthy shoot-’em-up stage!

Each shoot-’em-up section takes about 15-20 minutes to complete, and although you can save at any time during the Visual Novel portions of the game, you can’t save at all during the shmup, so be prepared! These can be tough for anyone unexperienced in the genre, but there is thankfully an “Easy” setting that should allow even the biggest novice to pass. And if you’re an old hand at shooters? Even “Normal” will probably seem too simple for you. So it’s probably a good thing that there’s a “Hell” difficulty setting for you experts. :P 

I’m someone who has plenty of retro game experience, but I’ve only rarely/sporadically played any “shmups.” I found I was able to beat the game without too much struggle on Normal difficulty, but it definitely took a lot of lives and a lot of tight maneuvering. It was stressful for me, but I’m only a little above “noob.” I’m just extremely grateful that the controls are so damn tight and precise. You can really move your ship between the tiniest gaps between enemy bullets without having to worry.

During the shmup segments, you have the opportunity to argue your case. This is where you get the “Logic Dive”-style minigame shown in the third screenshot of this post in addition to some other pauses that let you select evidence to make an argument. I’m always grateful for the chance to take a momentary break in the shooting action, so these were not just a fun away to use what we learned — they were also a welcome respite.

Now, this is all pretty cool, but I don’t want to oversell Yurukill. It has its faults. But some of them might even be considered positives... ? For example:

You spend half the game hopping into different prisoners’ scenarios, finding yourself controlling the actions of/experiencing the mindset of a new protagonist every chapter. The tail end of the game finally settles on one primary hero, but this decision prevents you from getting too invested in any one person or knowing any of them too well. Although I guess it DOES give you a chance to get to know some of them more than you would if you were just on the outside looking in. It’s impressive how, by the end of the game, you’ll probably feel sympathy for MOST parties who’ve endured this ridiculous torment. 

Perhaps as a side effect of the above, the characters here are perhaps a little thinner than those in other visual nvoels. There’s nothing in Yurukill that’s going to compare to the memorable complexities of a Danganronpa cast member. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have plenty of reason to still like them, either. They’re just not given any standout quirks or ironic traits that really make them feel oddly human, imo. But I also find them far more symapthetic than what you see in many similar games.  (ETA: Even over a YEAR after I finished playing this, I find that I still think about these characters pretty regularly. That definitely says a lot for this game that I can’t say for most other VNs/Danganlikes.)

Of course, this feeling could also be just a natural side effect of a game that only runs about 12 hours of total game time. For some people, that length will detract from the experience. For others, however, that could be seen as an upside. I was definitely in the mood for something shorter after playing really long friggin’ games in recent months... and since I finished playing this one, I’ve continued to think about it. It’s stuck with me in a way that really speaks to its impact.

My biggest issue is that a few of the puzzles just don’t work. Not MOST of them, thankfully! But the game gives you no penalty for requesting up to three hints per puzzle, and I think that’s an admission on the part of the devs that there are a spare few of these that are virtually impossible to figure out with just the information given to you in-game. You have to make some crazy logical leaps or do some things that just... no sane person is going to guess. There are even a couple times where using all three hints isn’t enough to make you clearly understand what you’re expected to do! (This is especially true of the dialogue choices in the rapid-fire Maji-Kill segments where you have to choose the right words to prevent your executioner from murderizing you right then and there. There are NO hints here, and there’s often very little difference between choices that get you killed and the choices that let you live...) 

PLEASE don’t let any of the above deter you too much, however. This is a narrative with some fun cast members as well as twists and turns that can be sometimes predictable, often surprising, and sometimes just frustrating because of how much you’re going to be rooting for a character who winds up getting screwed.

I guess this speaks well of Homura Kawamoto, who did most of the writing on Yurukill. He’s best known as the author of Kakegurui, which is a damn great manga/anime series that’s loaded with suspense in its own right. Which also speaks to just how suspenseful this game can get at times. ......... Please perceive that sentence as a serious thumbs-up.

Yurukill: The Calumniation Games, un mélange de genre réussi

Date de Sortie Développeur Plateformes Éditeur Genres 08/07/2022 IzanagiGames, G.rev, ESQUADRA Switch, Ps, PC Nippon Ichi Software Visual Novel, shoot'em up Synopsis Accusé(e) d'un horrible crime que vous n'avez pas commis, vous vous retrouvez à Yurukill Land, un mystérieux parc rempli d'attractions périlleuses auxquelles vous devez survivre si vous voulez retrouver votre liberté. L'auteur-scénariste Homura Kawamoto, surtout connu pour son célèbre manga Kakegurui, nous écrit une histoire tordue et complexe qui vous tiendra en haleine. En plus d'avoir une histoire détaillée, Yurukill offre aussi un gameplay shoot 'em up conçu par le célèbre développeur G.Rev ainsi que des classements en ligne permettant aux joueurs de comparer leurs progrès face à leurs adversaires. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQZp6turTsA

Un mélange de genre ultra réussi

Pour vous mettre rapidement dans le bain, le jeu se divise en plusieurs phases de style complètement différent. On peut certifier qu'il se scinde en 2.La première partie est en comparaison une sorte d'Ace Attorney. Il s'agit d'une partie scénarisée avec une phase de point'n click pour récolter des preuves de l'innocence d'une personne et de convaincre son exécuteur de son innocence.La seconde partie est purement shoot'em up. On dirige un vaisseau dans un défilement vertical. On tire sur tout ce qui bouge, on ramasse du level up et on affronte le boss de fin de niveau sur 3 stages différents. Cette partie est différente car elle est entrecoupée de phase bien distincte. Nous en reviendrons par la suite.Vous verrez que cette fusion de style est rondement bien menée. Voyons en détails cette première partie.

Un scénario commun avant scission

Il faut savoir que cette première partie de gameplay se divise en plusieurs scénarios différents impliquants des personnages différents. Ce qui diversifie au mieux le jeu.Avant le premier scénario, on se retrouve dans une cellule sur un bateau. Le premier protagoniste de l'histoire se rend compte qu'il n'est pas le seul. L'arrivée de Binko, une femme masquée, explique à tout le monde ce qu'ils font à bord. Ils doivent se préparer à mourir ou à survivre. Le but est de convaincre son exécuteur de son innocence. Si ce n'est pas le cas, l'exécuteur est en droit de le tuer par la pression d'un simple bouton qui active le mécanisme d'autodestruction de leur collier. Toute tentative de le retirer aura le même effet qu'une exécution. Devant eux se trouve un cahier avec pour consigne d'y écrire leur testament ou autre. C'est là que le mystère prend tout son sens quand le premier héros reçoit un bout de papier. Il est inscrit en gros que sa condamnation pour meurtre de 999 ans est une erreur et que le vrai meurtrier est juste à côté de lui. Binko intervient au mauvais moment et annonce que nous sommes arrivés à bon port.Au débarquement, on peut s'apercevoir qu'on se trouve une île à thème de parc d'attraction. Il y a divers thèmes qui représentent des lieux bien spécifiques pour les coupables et leurs exécuteurs. Dans ce jeu, on ne suit pas l'histoire d'un seul protagoniste mais de plusieurs.Ainsi commence l'aventure !

Première partie : l'enquête

Pour tous les participants au Yurukill Game, le principe reste le même. On commence avec une brève histoire énigmatique d'un meurtre façon théâtre d'ombres chinoise. Puis le jeu commence.On nous présente notre exécuteur/trice. On nous rappelle brièvement les règles du jeu et on nous dépose sur le thème du protagoniste.On se retrouve dans un lieu en rapport avec l'histoire du théâtre qui se trouvent être en lien avec le coupable et son exécuteur. On comprend rapidement que l'exécuteur est soit un survivant soit un membre de la famille du drame. On évolue dans une phase d'enquête sur 3 niveaux. Chaque niveau est verrouillé tant qu'on n'a pas ramassé toutes les preuves et résolu les énigmes. On doit ramasser des preuves comme des articles de journaux, des armes du crimes... les énigmes sont diverses et variées avec des résolutions codées ou en combinant preuves et objets.Il faudra prêter une attention particulière à tout. Car on est interrompu par une phase : le maji-kill Time. Il s'agit de convaincre son exécuteur de ne pas le tuer tout de suite. Il faudra répondre aux interrogations et choisir les bonnes réponses. Le but est de ne pas augmenter son désir de tuer (généré par une barre et son pourcentage).C'est un petit mélange entre Professeur Layton et Ace Attorney. Plus on avance, plus on en apprend sur l'affaire et on se rend compte que finalement nous ne sommes pas si coupable que ça. L'atmosphère se tend assez rapidement quand l'exécuteur explique son histoire et que notre vie se retrouve entre les mains d'une personne en quête de vengeance. Mais il y a des doutes qui finiront par subsister au fur et à mesure de l'avancée du scénario ce qui nous amène à la seconde partie du gameplay.

Seconde partie : un shoot'em up question/réponse

Un quoi ?? Cette seconde partie est elle aussi divisée en trois phases principales entrecoupées par des phases de questions réponses liées à l'enquête. Le but est de mettre le doute à l'exécuteur.Après avoir résolu la dernière énigme, on se retrouve dans une salle avec 2 fauteuils de réalité virtuelle. Une fois installé, le coupable peut mourir durant cette phase. L'exécuteur ne risque rien. Le but est de survivre aussi bien face aux ennemis qu'au boss joué par l'exécuteur.La partie se lance. On se retrouve dans un vaisseau de combat avec des caractéristiques propres à chaque coupable. On parle de puissance et de vitesse entre autres.On commence avec une phase de 5 questions/réponses liées à l'affaire en cours qui donnera votre limite de vies totale. Le maximum étant 20. Chaque erreur de réponses vous coûtera un certain nombre de points de vie. Sachez qu'il est vraiment préférable d'avoir le maximum pour la suite. Puis nous entrons dans la phase de combat. C'est assez simple : des ennemis arrivent, on évite leur tir, on les dégomme, on récupère des power-up, on engrange des points qui feront monter votre barre de bombe/protection. Puis arrive le boss. Si vous êtes habile, vous devriez avoir conservé tous vos points de vie. Ils sont vraiment utiles pour la suite car on passe encore par une phase de questions/réponses avec preuves à l'appui. Chaque mauvaise réponse vous fait perdre 3 points de vie. 

Troisième partie : les boss et leurs préjugés

Quand on affronte le boss, il revient tout de suite avec un bouclier qu'il faudra détruire. Il faut savoir qu'on le retrouve 3 fois. Une fois le bouclier détruit, on est projeté dans son cerveau qui constitue le synapse des préjugés. On communique avec l'exécuteur. Essayez de bien comprendre le sens caché de ses dires. Puis on vous pose une question, il faudra prouver votre innocence en présentant la bonne preuve. Sinon vous perdrez 3 points de vie. Enfin, vous ne prouverez pas votre innocence mais vous mettrez le doute sur votre culpabilité. Dans la dernière phase de combat, le boss revient plus énervé et puissant. Une fois le bouclier brisé, on se retrouve dans le labyrinthe de l'esprit. On vous propose 5 questions. Il faudra répondre au mieux pour convaincre votre exécuteur parmi les choix proposés. C'est une sorte de bilan d'enquête. Enfin, on a mis le doute. Il se trouve qu'on n'est peut-être pas si coupable que ça. Mais alors qui est le vrai coupable. C'est ainsi que le duo ennemi va s'associer pour découvrir le vrai coupable. Pour le reste, je vous laisse le soin de le découvrir car ça spoile pas mal.

Graphisme et musique à l'honneur

Dans la première partie, tout est soigné : les détails, les personnages, leurs expressions.. Tout est fait pour qu'on entre facilement au coeur de l'intrigue. Progressivement, on est amené à voir le vrai visage des personnages et l'écriture du scénario est rondement bien menée. On ne s'ennuie pas un seul moment. Les musiques sont justement jouées augmentant la pression scénaristique et l'empathie des personnages.Pour la seconde phase, la musique colle parfaitement bien avec les combats. On entre littéralement en transe et augmente aisément notre concentration nous permettant de nous sortir de situation délicate. J'ai remarqué néanmoins que sur Switch, on souffre de ralentissement notable quand l'écran déborde d'ennemi et de missile. Graphiquement, il est beau, chaque session est différente et on se plaît à admirer tout ça.Les phases de questions/réponses sont aussi amené à user d'un graphisme au petit soin dans un pseudo-monde de Tron ! Que dire ! J'ai aimé, j'ai adoré, j'ai kiffé ! J'avais peur au début de me retrouver coincé dans un visual novel lourd et dénué de sens, nous ennuyant à mourir.. mais c'est mené façon enquête avec des échanges très intéressant qui augmentent notre désir d'en savoir plus et toujours plus. De plus, la diversité des scénarios apportée par tous les coupables, augmente l'intérêt du jeu. Entrecoupé de phase shoot, l'équilibre est assurément bien menée. Néanmoins, on redoute cette phase car, si on meurt, on recommence toute cette phase. J'ai remarqué des soucis de latence, de questions pas assez claires mais est-ce voulu ? Personnellement, je suis agréablement surpris et il faut ABSOLUMENT l'avoir dans sa vidéothèque. Il passe inaperçu alors que c'est un excellent titre. Yakudark

Publisher IzanagiGames and developer G.rev have delayed escape adventure and shoot ’em up game Yurukill: The Calumniation Games from its previously planned 2021 release window to spring 2022, as well as launched the official website. It will be available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC via Steam.

The game is based on an original story by Homura Kawamoto (known for Kakegurui: Compulsive Gambler), and features a scenario written by his younger brother Hikaru Muno. Character design is handled by Hiro Kiyohara (Valkyria Revolution), and the soundtrack is by Yuko Komiyama (Monster Hunter series).

Here is an overview of the game’s story, via the official website:

Sengoku Shunju wakes up in his prison cell.

A woman wearing a fox mask introduces herself as Binko, and says: “Sengoku Shunju, you are a criminal sentenced to years in prison, you’ve been offered the chance to gain your freedom.

You must survive the various ‘attractions’ in a certain ‘amusement park.’ If you succeed, your crimes will be pardoned.”

“No, you’ve got it all wrong, I’ve been falsely accused! I’m innocent!” The victim of one of his alleged crimes appears. Her name is Rina Azami.

“Sengoku Shunju. A name I will never forget. You killed my entire family. For that, I will never forgive you.”

Sengoku is in prison, charged with arson and murder—for burning to death 21 people, including Rina’s family.

Naturally, the victim does not believe a word of Sengoku’s claims of innocence.

Besides Sengoku are four other groups of criminals and their respective victims.

The accused criminals are called “Prisoners,” and the victims “Executioners.” Criminals and victims must pair up to face the amusement park’s attractions.

There are a total of six criminals and five victims. There are five teams: Mass Murderers, Death Dealing Duo, Crafty Killers, Sly Stalkers, and Peeping Toms.

The Prisoners hope to overcome the challenges so that they may be pardoned.

Should the Executioners win, their wishes will be granted. At long last they will be able to avenge their loved ones.

The challenges take place in a secluded amusement park called “Yurukill Land.”

All manner of secrets will be unearthed as the teams face each attraction.

Who will survive the cruel, twisted place that is Yurukill Land?
