PQube have also provided us with a synopsis (of sorts) explaining what awaits for those wishing to explore this visual novel.

Synopsis:

Welcome to Fujisawa Academy – an educational institution where nothing is as it seems and every pupil hides a secret.

Having enrolled as a transfer student, everything feels pleasantly familiar. The pupils are friendly, the staff attentive. All the ingredients for a successful academic career. But you’re not here for a quiet life.

Having made a pact with Mon-chan, a sarcastic demon fox, you wield the power of Kotodama – a means of coercing the truth from those who seek to lie to you.

It’s not a power to be used lightly. Tasked with infiltrating the secretive Fujisawa Academy it soon becomes apparent that uncovering the sinister goings-on behind the seemingly normal façade may give you more than you bargained for…

Kotodama: The 7 Mysteries of Fujisawa is currently in development for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC (via Steam) and is expected to be released later this year. A trailer highlighting this announcement, as well as some of the unique artwork, has also been released and can be found below.
