When this happens, three crystals called Ideals form in the Otherworld, this Mist that has overtaken the academy is actually a side effect of a Pactbearers Authority and is connected to these Ideals. A Pactbearer is a human who has made a pact with a Daemon, this gives the bearer incredible powers they wouldn’t normally have. The task asked of you is to take on the 7 Pactbearers and their irrational madness. After doing the test, my result was Gluttony. If the world chooses not to accept your Ego, it’ll be up to you to prove that you can live by your own rules and do your own thing. The Dean of the school, Yoru, gives you a personality test to see which type of Ego you have out of a selection of seven, each coinciding with the deadly sins: Pride, Wrath, Envy, Greed, Gluttony, Sloth, and Lust. You wake up in Shin Mikado Academy where a Mist is released in the shape of a dome, driving all the students and staff start collapsing and going mad. After this short set up we jump into the game. In Casual, you take 35% less damage along with a 50% decrease in MAD gain whilst inside of the Mist. Despite being taught a few battle moves, you are defeated.īefore you get started you get to choose a language between English or Japanese and a choice of difficulty between Casual and Normal. You are tossed into a battle with creepy skeletons in a weird world that isn’t your own.
We meet the main protagonist, he has amnesia so his name is whatever you want it to be. MONARK starts off with a really cool looking hand-drawn animated intro that makes it feel like you are watching an anime. It is up to you, using your Ego, to save your friends and loved ones from the entities of the Daemon-filled dimension known as the Otherworld.
