Experience a Realistic Mystery in VR

A near future — yet, in Japan, in the year 2222, civilization feels as if it hasn't quite developed as much as people from a generation ago expected... or perhaps it has.

The protagonist, Raimei Itsukushima, an IT otaku with no particular redeeming qualities, and who has reached an age where he's called a middle-aged man without ever having a girlfriend, was involved in the development of "Murder Mystery VR" (MMVR for short), a dream-experience deduction game utilizing VR technology.

A virtual reality experience that unfolds within a dream-like state, controlled by brainwave manipulation.

The game is set aboard the spaceship "Heliopolis." A murder occurs during its interstellar journey, and players must become one of the characters and witness the incident's outcome.

MMVR garnered high praise, showed no malfunctions, and its official launch seemed imminent — but just as it was about to be released, Itsukushima received feedback: "My son, a test player, has been acting strangely."

Although headquarters dismissed the single, vague report, Itsukushima couldn't shake his unease. He resolved to join the beta-testing of MMVR as a player himself—

"If there's nothing amiss, then all's well..."

What will he discover within the confines of the ship, now a virtual locked room? And will he be able to clear the mystery game?

A tongue-in-cheek SF light mystery & SF fantasy.
