About the Summer of Mystery
In Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly, a girl wakes up in a mysterious mansion with no memory of who she is or how she got there. PlayStation Official Magazine UK called it “a gripping story filled with emotional and thrilling moments. Twists and turns in the narrative feel very well done, and may leave you feeling shaken.”

7'scarlet follows the adventures of a college student as she visits a strange village to search for clues about her missing brother. PlayStation Lifestyle said, “like a good paperback, I could not put it down. I had to learn everything there is to know about the town of Okunezato, these characters, and the truth about the disappearance of Ichiko's brother.”

The heroine of Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk must discover a treasure to bring peace to her town and unlock the mystery of her own past. Siliconera commented, “Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk takes its time, making sure people are invested. It builds up a world, shows how everyone is connected [and] gives characters time to understand who Jed is and grow to love her, and the story is stronger for it.” Honey's Anime says, “[It] has not disappointed and we cannot wait to see what else Aksys Games has in store for us visual novel lovers after this great season of otome games.”

Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly, 7'scarlet, and Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk are available now for the PlayStation®Vita system. All games are rated 'T' for Teen by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB).
