"Phew, finally done! (Midnight: the hour our world begins.)"
About
🎮 ARCADE: MIDNIGHT
A slightly worn-down game center tucked away in a corner of the city. By day, it's an ordinary arcade, but once closing time passes, it transforms into another world. At midnight sharp. As the last customer leaves and the shutters roll down, the power to the machines flickers on one by one, all by themselves. The screens don't show games. Instead, the world of the "Game Center" itself unfolds within.
By being played, the machines establish their existence and are ranked.
*Character story arcs change depending on their rank*
- Played often: S-Rank
- Played regularly: A-Rank
- Played moderately: B-Rank
- Rarely played: C-Rank
- Pending for UNKNOWN: D-Rank
- Not played: Sent to the UNKNOWN FLOOR
Guest Settings: Feel free to set as you like. (Nonhuman game machine characters are recommended!)
