## Description
In 1997, Tokyo was hit by an unseen disaster. Horrifying mutations turned the
city into a ruin in a short time. All this was part of a plan concocted by
supernatural creatures to bring about what they called a Demonic Destruction.
However, a benevolent princess from the same magical realm contacts a simple
young girl and tells her that she and other seven chosen humans may stop the
catastrophe. Meanwhile, a young man named Gojou is captured by the
authorities, but soon thereafter released into the desolate streets of Tokyo
with a special mission…
_Maky ōden_ is an adventure game; it differs from the vast majority of its
Japanese genre brethren by having a third-person view and navigation similar
to those found in Western adventures. The interface consists of four icon
commands (walk, look, talk, and use) that can be switched with the right mouse
button, similarly to Sierra adventures. Despite this unusual feature, the game
still resembles Japanese-style adventures in its core: there is no inventory
and no puzzles, and the story is advanced simply by exploring areas and
talking to characters.
