“You have seven days to survive, or else the chips in your body will explode.”

Hashimoto Jun, a young novelist, was never expecting that a trip with her boss to the opening of a new mall, would rope her to play death games with five other people. With these strangers, she was forced to work together and escape the mall safely.

This is a story about acceptance, freedom, and love.

Concept sounds interesting! It looks like your images aren't loading (also not on the itch.io thread). Do you have a link to some screenshots?
