The story of the "beautiful girl tap action role-playing game" is set in the unchanging scenery and calm daily life of Tokyo in 2017. Female fighters are battling in the unknown reverse side of Tokyo. Dolls is actually a facade to conceal the true nature of the group as a combat force. A few years ago, a strange being known as Pygmalion appeared and began to consume people in the shadows of Tokyo. The affected area extends to a wide area inside Tokyo, and people's memories and feelings are being consumed. The girls reborn as dolls with paranormal powers are the only opposition to Pygmalion. Forced to fight a harsh battle beyond death, the girls' fates are interwoven with the mysterious artifact "Gear" that shines in their hearts.
The game is slated to launch for iOS and Android devices this month. Basic gameplay will be free, but some in-game items will be available for purchase. The pre-registration period is open now, and players will receive in-game bonus items depending on how many people pre-register.
