The story is a survival game between 24 people who each have a device called an SCM (slave control method), which can make their opponent into their slave. Each person has their own reason for participating in the game.

The manga is an adaptation of Okada's Boku to 23-nin no Dorei novels, which initially serialized on the novel submission site Everystar. Futabasha published three volumes for the main series, as well as a sequel titled Doreiku 2nd Shinjuku Kikō Kai and a side story titled Dorei-ku: Boku to 23-nin no Dorei.ex. Okada is publishing a new sequel titled Dai Doreiku: Kimi to 1-Oku 3-Senban no Dorei.

Ōishi launched the manga adaptation on Everystar in 2012 and Futabasha published the full series in 10 compiled volumes.

A live-action film adaptation starring Sayaka Akimoto and Kanata Hongō opened in Japan in June 2014.
