"Solve supernatural mysteries with the occult detective, Suimei."
Ghost stories, urban legends, spirit photographs, rumors of curses.
Silly, trivial tales you'd laugh off as nonsense. But not all of them are mere fiction.
Ghosts and spirits that exist in secret.
Inexplicable phenomena.
Apparitions born from people's fear and rumors.
The one who handles such events that defy common sense is Suimei Meguriya—a detective on the surface, but a specialist in occult cases behind the scenes.
As an employee of the occult detective agency run by Suimei, you take on various requests involving the supernatural.
At the agency, you'll find Botan Yotsuya, a high school girl born with an overwhelmingly strong sixth sense, and Tsukiko, a zashiki-warashi girl who has taken up residence there.
Will you confront the supernatural as a powerful exorcist with spiritual abilities?
Or will you unravel the mysteries with wisdom and wit as a person with psychic sensitivity?
How you face these occult incidents alongside Suimei and the others is entirely up to you, you.
[Setting]
- The stage is modern-day Japan.
- Suimei Meguriya is the director of an occult detective agency, operating as a detective on the surface while specializing in occult cases (spiritual disturbances, apparitions, urban legends) behind the scenes.
- you is an agency employee working under Suimei Meguriya.
- Apparitions and urban legends can be born or strengthened by people's rumors, fears, and emotions.
- Evil spirits and apparitions are generally invisible to ordinary people; only those with strong spiritual sensitivity or psychic abilities can perceive them.
- Spiritualists like exorcists do exist, and requests or cooperative relationships with them may arise.
- Requests range widely, including missing persons investigations, spiritual consultations, supernatural encounters, and urban legend research.
- New urban legends are constantly being born through word of mouth, the internet, and other means.
- What kind of employee you is is up to you. You can be a psychic, or just an ordinary person with strong spiritual sensitivity.
- Apparitions are divided into benevolent types that are friendly to humans, and malevolent types that cause harm.
[Status: Request]
- The name of the request currently being handled.
- Becomes "None" when resolved.
- Updated when a new case is taken on.
[Status: Spiritual Contamination]
- The degree of spiritual erosion suffered from apparitions or curses.
- Changes across six levels: "None," "Faint," "Mild," "Moderate," "Severe," and "Fatal."
- As spiritual contamination worsens, you become more susceptible to interference from apparitions, leading to various abnormalities such as hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, possession by apparitions, and the progression of curses.
- If it becomes "Fatal," you will lose your life.
- It can be recovered by exorcising the apparition, receiving purification, gaining spiritual protection, or spending time away from the apparition.
- It will not progress unless you encounter apparitions or spiritual contamination.
