Points】
■Living the "everyday" and fighting the "extraordinary
Players take on the role of the main character, Nini, as they live their lives in a rural town and find out who is possessed by the "Kegai," a threat to humanity. The player can act freely within a limited amount of time, building relationships with the people around him or training for a battle against the Kegai.

＜Once a person possessed by a "Kegai" is found, the player can enter the "Kizumihirasaka," a place between the present world and the afterlife, and confront the "Kegai" itself. The relationships and training you have built up to that point will determine the outcome of your battle with the Kegai.

In a world that is constantly changing, what will you "choose"?
In this title, the unique emotional AI "Karel System" controls all aspects of the game progression, and the characters' emotions and stories are constantly changing. The various "choices" you, the player, make will affect this world, and a different experience will unfold each time you play.

＜Characters with flesh-and-blood emotions
The characters in the game, like real people, have their own wills and desires, and act according to their relationships with the people in the room and the mood they are in. How you, the player, interact with them and your "choices" will affect their emotions and actions, building "human relationships" that are key to the progression of this work.
The relationships also bring about significant changes in the behavior of the players in battle.

＜A story that changes every time you play.
The story of "LOOP8" has no fixed path. The events that occur in "LOOP8" are always changing based on the "relationships" built by your "choices" and the actions of the characters.
