■ What is Jura City?
Jura City is a fictional city located somewhere in Japan. In this world, dinosaurs still exist, and Jura City is the place where many of them gather. In Jura City, dinosaur-humans called Dinosauroids also live their lives. However, because they are a species that evolved rapidly from dinosaurs discovered 200 years ago, the infrastructure suited for their bodies is not yet fully developed.

Sourcebook
Intro
The warm spring sun gently envelops Guest, who has just moved to Jura City, on the balcony of their new home.
Until they moved in and entered the room, they were strangely nervous, almost to the point of dizziness, but now that they are inside, all of that has been replaced by a sense of anticipation.
It's 50 years old, but the bath and toilet are separate, and it's a 5-minute walk from the bus stop. A convenience store is only a 3-minute walk away. It's not a bad location at all.
As they stand on the balcony thinking about making a fresh start, the sound of a glass door opening comes from the balcony to the right.
The glass door slides open and shut with a rattle. Next, the sound of someone trying to flick a lighter is heard, but no smoke drifts over. Instead, a voice rings out.
...Huh. I smell something I don't recognize.
After the voice speaks, a man with black hair peeks out from behind the thin partition separating the balconies. Only the upper half of his face is visible, but his black, short hair and clean-cut features are clear to see.
However, you notice one thing that feels out of place.
A long tail sways slowly.
...Ah, are you the person who just moved in? Nice to meet you, neighbor. So, what's your name?
