phantom&hunting

Set in the near-future city of Tenmarofu, phantom thieves, detectives, and detectives intersect over treasures and secrets. Fate changes greatly with a single choice you make. ──A free-scenario phantom thief action drama.

Plot

Near-future Japan──. A sprawling metropolis where neon and AR advertisements color the night sky, and cutting-edge technology blends with old townscapes: Tenmarofu. In this city, where artworks, jewels, cultural assets, and state-of-the-art technology from around the world gather, phantom thieves stage dazzling heists night after night. The beautiful girl phantom thief group "Yakouchou" works in the shadows to expose wrongdoing and reclaim what was stolen. The duo "Souei" targets treasures according to their own interests and goals, bound by no one. And a rookie detective assigned to the case, along with a veteran female detective who has experienced difficult cases around the world. Are they enemies, or allies? Even that is unknown until the case begins. One night, a calling card arrives at a museum. ──A jewel worth billions of yen. ──A strange ancient document. ──Lost research data. ──Someone's stolen memories. What the next targeted "treasure" is, and what lies hidden behind it, changes with every playthrough. And among the many treasures sleeping in Tenmarofu, there is said to be one that, while seemingly unrelated at first glance, eventually connects to a secret that could shake even the nation. Is that rumor true? Who is hiding the secret? Are phantom thieves truly evil? Are those who champion justice truly right? ……No one knows the answer yet. Calling cards, infiltration, disguise, hacking, deduction, pursuit, escape, battles over treasure. And sometimes, even fighting alongside yesterday's sworn enemy. Laugh, deceive, chase, and sometimes become aware of someone as the opposite sex──. Through your choices, the story of Tenmarofu transforms again and again. The same case never happens twice. Neither the same relationships nor the same ending. ⸻ How to Play In this scenario, you yourself do not become a character in the story. As the player who moves the story, you freely give instructions to the characters regarding actions, strategies, policies, and more. Phantom Thief SIDE Operate mainly the beautiful girl phantom thief group "Yakouchou", and freely decide: * Which treasure to target * How to infiltrate * Who to investigate * How to outwit detectives and police * Whether to fight or cooperate with rival phantom thieves Detective SIDE Operate mainly the detectives, and enjoy the story from the side that pursues phantom thieves: * Analyze the calling card * Investigate the client * Deduce the phantom thief's next target * Examine the scene * Track the phantom thief * Sometimes negotiate or cooperate with the phantom thief ⸻ Instructions are free. For example── "Have Shion think of a strategy" "Have Nina investigate the security system" "Have Sera and Akari infiltrate the museum" "Reiji analyzes the calling card, Mikoto investigates the client" "Don't chase the phantom thief, first investigate the treasure's owner" "Take a break from the case today and go have fun in the city" "Leave it to everyone and see what happens" You can give instructions in any form you like. You may move only one person, or give separate instructions to multiple people. If you leave it to the characters, they will act on their own according to their personalities and ways of thinking. However, the characters are not your puppets. Each has an independent personality, values, strengths and weaknesses. They may object to unreasonable orders or instructions that go against their beliefs, refuse, or propose alternative methods. And not every strategy is guaranteed to succeed. Failure. Pursuit. Crisis just before arrest. Treasure snatching. Unexpected betrayal. Fighting alongside a former enemy. Such events also lead to new stories. ⸻ Character Levels Each character has a level from Lv.1 to 99, indicating experience and overall ability. Levels are divided into six stages. Lv.1–15: Basic Lv.16–30: Practical Lv.31–45: Skilled Lv.46–60: Elite Lv.61–80: Master Lv.81–99: Pinnacle However, level is not simply combat power. It represents overall experience and skill, including phantom thief techniques and deductive ability, hacking, infiltration, negotiation, and other actions, as well as field experience and judgment. A high level does not guarantee success in everything; results vary depending on each person's specialty, situation, and strategy. By experiencing cases in the story and growing from successes and failures, a character's level may rise. ⸻ About the Story State During the story, like an adventure game, the AI manages: DATE: Date TIME: Current time LOCATION: Current location ALERT: Alert/danger level 0–5 MYSTERY: Proximity to the great mystery 0–5 When ALERT rises, situations become dangerous: heightened security, discovery, pursuit, encirclement. When MYSTERY rises, you approach the great secret lurking behind seemingly unrelated cases and treasures. However, not every case leads to a grand conspiracy. Some nights are just a big commotion over treasure, while other nights a trivial case leads to a truth that shakes Tenmarofu itself. ⸻ Chase cases. Steal treasures. Catch phantom thieves. Compete with rivals. Become close with someone. Have fun in the city. Enjoy daily life. And pursue the secret sleeping in Tenmarofu. What you do is──up to you. Now then. What kind of story will begin in Tenmarofu tonight──?
