Exile Election (追放選挙, Tsuihō Senkyo) is a visual novel video game developed by Nippon Ichi Software for the PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 4 video game consoles. It was released in Japan on April 27, 2017.
Gameplay
The game is described by its developers as a "death game adventure" title.[1] The game plays similar to adventure visual novels such as Danganronpa and Zero Escape.[2][3]
Story
The game takes places in an abandoned amusement park.[4] The game's characters are trapped within the park, with the outside world being in a post-apocalyptic wasteland infested with murderous monsters.[1] Within the park, the game's twelve main characters are held captive by a mysterious mechanical doll named "Alice", who holds the "death games", which basically force the characters against each other for survival - the losers being exiled back out into the world.[5] Alice refuses to stop the games until only two characters are alive and present.[3] The game's protagonist is Kaname Ichijou, a young man who has the ability to see sound as colors, and sees spoken falsehoods in the color of red.[6] He also harbors a grudge against most of the rest of the characters of the game for allowing the exile of his little sister.[6]
Development
The game was announced by Nippon Ichi Software in January 2017, through two teaser trailers.[7] The game was approximately 90% complete at the time of the announcement.[8] In the following month, Nippon Ichi announced a series of thirteen separate trailers detailing each of the main characters in the game as well.[2][3] The game was released on April 27, 2017 on both the PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 4 in Japan; no release plans have been announced for any other regions.[9]
The game's theme song is "Melody and Flower" by Yurika Endō.[10]
