STORY

You are a student of the Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School.
Your skill as a jujutsu sorcerer is the ability to use cursed techniques over long distances.
But in exchange for that power, you are unable to leave your home -
a student who has been registered in name only.

One day, news of ordinary people going missing one after another at an abandoned school reaches your high school. Investigations confirm that it is the work of a cursed spirit.
You get a letter from your teacher, Satoru Gojo, who also happens to be
the strongest jujutsu sorcerer in the world.

“It has been decided that the first-year students will be in charge of the abandoned school's disappearance incidents. Your help is absolutely vital to this case. We're counting on you!”
You use the contact information you received from Gojo to get in touch with
the other 3 first-year students at the location.
Cooperate with them to uncover the truth behind the case,
and exorcise the cursed spirit at the abandoned school!
