Dark Rose Valkyrie

The story

"1929 - It was the year of the outbreak. In masses, normal people were transforming into inhuman creatures called Chimeras. The cause: a mysterious virus brought to earth by a meteorite, known as the Black Garnet, which crashed there long ago. The Chimera Virus in its beginning stages would wipe out 3% of the world's entire population. In a state of national emergency, Japan became a closed nation in an attempt to stave off the pandemic. A covert military agency known as ACID was established to combat the remaining Chimeras in country. Time passes. ACID establishes a special unit known as Special Force Valkyrie in order to eradicate the Chimera that threaten humanity to this day."

Publisher's content notice

This is a role-playing game in which players join young soldiers battling monsters and trying to save the world. As players explore a futuristic alternate universe, they engage in turn-based combat with beasts called Chimera. Characters use sword-gun weapons to deplete enemies' health meters; combat is highlighted by realistic gunfire, light effects, and cries of pain. One cutscene contains still images of a character repeatedly shooting another with a pistol; a pool of blood is depicted afterwards. The game includes some suggestive imagery: a beach scene in which female characters are provocatively posed in swimsuits that reveal deep cleavage; a hot-spring sequence in which women appear partially topless. The dialogue briefly mentions illicit drugs (e.g., “[I]llegal, sweetly flavored drugs are popular lately...” and “Recently there have been rumors of drug trafficking...”). The words “sh*t” and “a*shole” appear in dialogue.
