HappyElements released Merc Storia -Yujutsushi to Rin no Shirabe- for Android and iOS devices in 2013. In the game, players create a character and gather allies to go on a journey to restore the memories of Merc, a girl trapped inside a bottle.
UJOY released an English version of the game in Southeast Asia for Android and iOS devices in July, but the company is shutting down the English version on December 20.
