Akiba’s Trip: Undead & Undressed is an open-world action RPG in which players undertake numerous missions in a virtual recreation of Akihabara, Tokyo’s popular ”Electric Town” district.
Akihabara. “Akiba,” for short.
This suburban Tokyo ward’s seen it all, from Japan’s post-war reconstruction to the economic bubblegum crisis of the ’80s. Always on the cutting edge of progress, with a little something to offer even the most fetishistic of appetites, it was almost inevitable that this singular technocracy of indulgence would give birth to a whole new kind of appetite altogether.
Enter, the “Synthisters” – vampires who prey upon the life energy of the town’s unsuspecting figurine-chasers, maid café connoisseurs and cosplayers. Those victimized by Synthisters take on the properties of their attackers while also withdrawing from society and becoming veritable shut-ins due to their newfound fatal weakness to sunlight.
AKIBA’S TRIP tells the story of one such unfortunate soul: a young man named Nanashi who was lured into a trap by the promise of rare character goods and transformed into one of the walking undead. He, however, was spared the worst of his fate by the bloody kiss of a mysterious Synthister hunter named Shizuku. Together with the rest of his companions in an organization unofficially dubbed the “Akiba Freedom Fighters,” Nanashi and Shizuku must uncover the truth behind the Synthister plague and save Akiba from being overrun by violent, antisocial energy vampires.
And of course, the best way to fight vampires is to strip them down to their skivvies so they melt in the noonday sun…
Like a virtual tour of Tokyo’s Akihabara district, all major outdoor locations from the town have been painfully recreated, with over 130 real-life shops accurately represented.
Anything can be a weapon, from baseball bats to comics to motherboards, and individual clothing items may be targeted, stripped and added to the player’s own inventory.
Playing off common anime and video game tropes for social satire, the player’s choices determine how the story progresses, leading to one of many unique endings.

This is an open-world action game in which players help a teenage boy and his friends defend a shopping district from evil forces. Players punch, kick, and use various weapons (e.g., bats, giant kebabs, umbrellas) to defeat human foes and enemy creatures (e.g., vampires) in hand-to-hand combat. By weakening foes, players are able to disrobe opponents down to their underwear; female characters are often depicted in lingerie/underwear. Still-frame images sometimes depict male and female characters in provocative poses—the camera focuses on their underwear, pelvic areas, and/or cleavage. The game also includes sexually suggestive dialogue and text (e.g., “I swear, if you go out with me, every part of me is yours” and “Kanda is the brutal, sadistic top, while Akihabara is the easy bottom who cries out in pleasure in bed.”). The words “f**k,” “sh*t,” and “a*shole” appear in dialogue.

This game was great. The story was very interactive. the things your make your character say really do matter for the end of the game. It also flowed very well and made sense. You were not just ripping the clothes off of enemies for nothing. They are weak to sunlight and they explode when they have to much contact with the sun.
Also the combat system was simple enough to learn. Do combos and cluster attacks. How they set up the upgrade feature was nice. It was very simple. If I can figure it out, anybody can. You can upgrade hats, shirts, pants, and weapons. And the weapons to choose from all do different moves.
Sound and graphics were good, Nothing to complain about.
Conclusion: Overall Akiba’s Trip was fun. I really enjoyed it. It’s not as weird as some might think.
