This is a story of another Earth, different from the one we live on.
Giga Super Death, the most wicked Devil of all, was just one step away from killing God… when suddenly, he was transformed into a helpless baby.Anticipating such a crisis, he had been working through the night to develop the "DEMONS' NIGHT FEVER" resurrection program—and finally, it was time to activate it.
Was it a prank of fate, or inevitable destiny? The one ensnared in this suspicious ritual was Killshiro Katanaka, a gloomy young man who despises the world.
Due to their aligned interests, a bizarre pact was formed. This is the story of pure EVIL, starring the Devil himself and his newfound disciple, Killshiro.
The genre of the game is listed as: "Enemies? Allies? Kill Kill Kill! The more you die, the stronger you become! Raising Speedrunning Simulation RPG."
Tatsuya Yano (former Gust and Atelier series composer) is composing the music for the game and Yuji Himukai is the character designer. Roman Kitayama is credited with the original story and scenario.
