Bakuden The Unbalanced Zone is a Japanese production on Mega CD halfway between visual novel and puzzle in a stylized urban universe. The version uses the CD format for careful cinematics and voices but the language barrier limits access. For nippophile fans of hybrid adventures.

Collector interest
A Japanese adventure of offbeat tone blending action and puzzles, a Mega-CD exclusive that stayed in Japan. Its collector interest lies in that total obscurity outside the archipelago and the rarity of the format's Japanese adventures, sought by importers documenting the Mega-CD's little-known Japanese catalogue. The original Japanese edition is the case purists favour.
