November 26th, 2020 – Sekai Games is pleased to announce that Root Double -Before Crime * After Days- Xtend Edition is released today on the Nintendo Switch eStore.

It’s Different, it’s Compelling, it’s Root Double
Best described as a visual novel, it conveys a breathtaking adventure that offers gamers a unique and scintillating experience, which has already been described as unique! Its dramatized plot and interaction between the in game characters together with the gripping storylines will captivate fans of this genre! Highly engaging, with an emotional story, 40 endings and in excess of 50 hours of gameplay Root Double offers a mature storyline, unique gameplay – Senses Sympathy System – which sets it apart from conventional visual novels. Fully voiced in Japanese by famous voice actors and directed by world renowned Ever17 Creator Takumi Nakazawa and displayed in full HD, the look of the game has a distinguished and polished ambience.

The year is 2030. Business is as usual in the isolated research city of Rokumei–that is until several explosions suddenly go off in the nuclear research facility known as “LABO.” The city sends in “Sirius,” an elite rescue squad, to deal with the situation. But the situation only gets worse when LABO’s nuclear reactor melts down, sending the facility into lockdown–with members of Sirius and survivors still trapped inside. With lethal radiation leaking everywhere and not enough anti-radiation medication to last until lockdown lifts, the survivors make more and more grim discoveries. In their struggle for survival, in a deathtrap full of fire and radiation, they learn that doubt is their greatest enemy, and trust their greatest asset.
