Kamitsubaki Academy Newspaper Club is a recently-announced adventure game that looks like it could be pretty interesting.
You wake up in Kamitsubaki City with amnesia and start working alongside the Kamitsubaki Academy Newspaper Club to investigate secrets and mysteries in the city.
According to the Steam page, gameplay will be divided into two sections: story sections where you spend time with the other club members and investigation sections where you investigate the city.
Investigations appear to rely on stats: Movement, Wisdom, Insight, Mystery, and Luck.
They haven’t shown too much about the game yet, but it’s enough to make me interested.
Now, it’s set in the same universe as other Kamitsubaki City games. Looking on Steam, I see a post-apocalyptic rhythm game called Kamitsubaki City Ensemble and a visual novel called Kamitsubaki City Regenerate, and it seems like they’re all part of a larger multimedia project.
All in all, it seems intriguing, so I might look into the other games more. In the meantime, Kamitsubaki Academy Newspaper Club looks like it has potential.
I seems very cute! I like the aesthetic of it, though the trailer doesn’t show much beyond the character design and some music.
Yeah, it’s hard to get a good grasp on what the gameplay will look like, although I also saw some additional screenshots on Gematsu.
