*Summary*

 A time far in the future.
 In Midorijima, an island to the southwest of the Japanese islands.
People and nature once coexisted on this plentiful island.

 However, due to being purchased by the leading company of Japan "Toue Company", one third of the island has been changed into the extravagant amusement facility "Platinum Jail". Equipped with the latest cutting edge technology, Platinum Jail has gathered attention. On the other side, the islanders who became victims of forceful development are forced into the "Former Residents District", and have no choice but to carry out their lives in a place that is by no means prosperous.

 The protagonist Aoba spends his days working part-time at the junk shop "Heibon" inside the Former Residents District, living together with his grandmother Tae. 

 Among the young people of the Former Residents District, a certain game has become popular. In "Liebstiez", teams are created and days of human-bullet turf wars unfold. On the other hand, "Rhyme" is an electronic brain online game using a virtual world as its setting which "Rhymers" are going crazy over. Aoba shows no interest in either one, thinking that it would be nice to just live peacefully with his grandmother. 

 But the disaster that will shake up those peaceful days has already begun...

 

*Ending Guideline / Suggested Route-Ending Order*

 There are 5 routes (6 if you're playing the PSvita version), one of them (Ren) is only unlocked after beating the good ending of the first four routes, and the exclusive Re:Code Mizuki Route is only unlocked by beating the first 5 good ends AND Virus & Trip side route. The routes you complete can be seen on the main menu. Initially, Aoba and Ren sprites will be walking along the logo. Clear more routes for more characters to join them, until the whole cast is present. And remember: a route does not count as cleared until after the credits. Quit during the credits and you must start from your last save for the game to register the cleared route. There's also an off-shot route during Ren's path, which is called the ViTri end. 

 The choices on the common route will determine what route you'll get and the choices during a route will facilitate getting the good or the bad end of the route. Whether you are on your way to a good or bad ending is indicated by the brain at the bottom-right corner of the menu. Make bad decisions and the brain will fill with red. If the brain is blue, you likely to get a good ending, and if it is red, a bad ending. This can be checked regularly during gameplay. Choices in italics need to be unlocked (They're unlocked by beating the first four good ends). You need to make ALL choices in the game to unlock the special "Thank You" CG. The recommended route order is:

• Clear -->Noiz --> Koujaku --> Mink --> ViTri --> Ren --> Morphine\Mizuki (VITA ONLY)
• Also do the Bad Ends before the good endings. 

NOTE: Noiz is the only character to have two bad ends! 

 ~Choice Recovery~ will cover up choices you didn't make during the walkthrough. Do ~Choice Recovery~ before Ren's route if you want to unlock the final CG. Don't forget to read the notes left inside the spoiler boxes!

Ren

 You need to beat the good endings of the above routes at least once. New choices will appear during the common route, so, start the game again and\or load a save file on the first choice. If you're going to get Ren's bad end it is recommended that you also get the ViTri end, since to get it, it is required to have bad choices during the route.
