Imabikisō (忌火起草, Imabikisō) is a visual novel developed by Chunsoft for the PlayStation 3. It is the first visual novel to be released on a seventh generation console. It was later released for the Nintendo Wii under the title Imabikisō: Kaimei-hen with additional content. The game imagery consists mostly of static or animated photographs, though live-action clips are scattered throughout.[1]
Plot
[edit]A new and mysterious drug known as "Vision" has been hitting the streets of Japan, being a hit to the young people, especially to those studying in university. The drug, if and when taken, allows the users to see visions from a user's perspective while being high, created from a mysterious flower called Imabikisō. Players play a university student named Hiroki Makimura, who gets together with fellow student Manami Hayase and a few other students when they heard news reports of students being mysteriously killed with horrific burns on their bodies.
The two later investigate a mansion that's believed to be linked to the drug's creation and to Imabikisō after some of their classmates in university begin to die after taking Vision.
PSN contents
[edit]A playable demo featuring three stories and the official trailer was released on the Japanese PlayStation Store on October 15, 2007.[citation needed]
Additional contents were also made available on the PlayStation Store, these were two extra free of charge chapters.[2]
