Game info from the developer:

You play as Kevin, whose life changes one day with a chance meeting with a demon hunting for a glass orb. Running for his life he ends up in a nearby town, where he encounters a strange group of people also on the lookout for this strange glass orb.

Soon he is dragged along unwillingly, and may even have to choose what side in this hunt he wishes to take.

Yoko:

Here’s a handful of some of the newest games! (Some are preorders~ Play-Asia is good about clearly marking them. n_n Also pay attention to which games are region-locked and must be played on Japanese game systems.)
