A 73 average on few ratings — judge this one for yourself. An adventure game leaning hard into science fiction, thriller — more about the journey than the destination. One player, no compromises. This was built for the solo run.

About this game

Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls is a horror action adventure spin-off game in the Danganronpa series of visual novel games, taking place between the events of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair. Unlike the visual novel gameplay of the previous games, Ultra Despair Girls is a third-person adventure game with horror elements, in which players control Komaru Naegi as she tries to survive in a city overrun by Monokuma robots.

Komaru Naegi, the younger sister of Makoto Naegi, has spent more than a year held captive in an apartment in Towa City, cut off from the outside world. Her confinement ends abruptly when a murderous Monokuma robot breaks into her room and she discovers a city thrown into chaos, its adults hunted by swarms of the machines. The uprising is the work of the Warriors of Hope, a group of children determined to exterminate every grown-up and build a world of their own. Armed with a strange megaphone weapon and joined by the troubled Toko Fukawa, Komaru must fight her way through the ruined streets in search of a way out.
