Exploring a Tokyo overrun by demons, torn between Law, Chaos and Neutrality, unfolds a dark RPG where every choice shapes the world's fate and the ending you reach. Recruiting and fusing demons, negotiating with enemies and roaming vast dungeons fills long hours. That replay value, built on moral branching, explains the series' stubborn aura among connoisseurs.

A questionable morality
The flavor of the journey lies in haggling with demons: you strike up conversation, flatter or bribe them into enlisting, then run them through fusion without remorse the moment a stronger model pokes its head out. Saving a ruined world runs here through the unabashed management of allies the game treats, at bottom, as mere interchangeable materials.
