Not a trio of adventurers from three different races who must now learn to live together in some sort of reality TV show.
I want this game.

This is a remake of Shoji Masuda's (Oreshika, Linda Cube, etc.) Hero Must Die:

Famitsu managed to have a sit-down with Shoji Masuda, head of the project, and heard some of the thinking that went into the making of this game. Apparently a lot of thought was put into irregular plot points, hence the "begin at the ending" approach. As well, since they knew they were developing this for cell phones, the Pyramid dev team intentionally made the game both short and full of material. Since most of their intended audience will be playing this on the bus or subway, it was designed so that a single playthrough could be done on a regular Tokyo commute. However, the more times one plays through it, the more material becomes available, it would seem. Certain events might not trigger the first time around, but possibly on the second, third, or fifth time through.
I can't imagine this approach working on anything but a cell phone, but it's made for an interesting read. Yuusha Shisu (Hero Must Die!) is available on all three major cell phone networks, though the "Director's Cut" version is only for DoCoMo.
The hero of Hero Must Die only has five days to live. This is following a bout with the demon king, through which he was killed. But even with the demon kings defeat, the world still faced a number of problems. Thus, the hero is granted five more days to live, and as him, players can take on a variety of actions that result in different endings.
New elements include:
- New scenarios across every heroine, as well as two brand new heroines.
- Music arrangement and new music by Kenji Ito.
- A voiced main character.
Characters include:
- Hero (voiced by Tsubasa Yonaga)
- Yuria the Angel (voiced by Asami Imai)
- Devil King (voiced by Tsuguo Mogami)
- Princess Flora (voiced by Rie Murakawa)
Staff includes:
- Planning, Game Design, and Scenario Shoji Masuda
- Music Kenji Ito
- Character Design: Tetsu Kurosawa
- Development: Pyramid
- Producer: Moto Suganuma

Guess its back to waiting for Asagi...
Guess its back to waiting for Asagi...
The final boss has been defeated, so the player character takes it upon himself to become the new villain.Who says you are the hero?
Well that's interesting.
Guess its back to waiting for Asagi...
I guess when they run out of ideas, then it can happen, right?
How many projects does NIS maintain internally anyway? The only thing they've announced on the way is Witch and the Hundred Knight Revival, and a sequel to that game. Was Asagi in the original game? She's usually in most of the games NIS produced since Makai Kingdom.
