OVERVIEW
Rea never wanted to play the game of life. That’s why she died. But somehow, she was brought back with sixteen others who all had unfinished business. She doesn’t know why she was brought back, when she’d ended her life on her own terms. But she had a Valor just like the rest of them, and she wouldn’t allow her existence to end at someone’s else’s hand when she’d worked so hard to let her death be her own.
6th Sense: The Revival is a Danganronpa and Your Turn To Die inspired, fully voice acted multi-ending visual novel adventure game following Rea, a 17-year-old who recently committed suicide. When she’s brought back as a part of the Revival, a strange game with the prize of a second chance at life, she’s thrown into a treacherous new reality where one wrong move could destroy her forever. Surrounded by people who would do anything for another chance, all armed with new abilities none of them really understand, Rea finds herself stuck between new friends and a chance at finally finding the peace she’s always wanted. With so much at stake, though, is it possible for any of them to break free?
The team of 6S:TR are excited to announce that we're nearly ready to begin formal production and experimentation! That said, there's still a lot of work to do, but we're very excited to work on the process of getting the game voice acted!
