The game focuses on the protagonist Cinque, a girl with no memories who appeared one night in front of some castle. There's an inscription that reads "Only one human and their tulpa will survive.".

If the human host dies, the tulpa will die and vice versa. On top of that, strange creatures known as "tulpas" came into existence around this time which "look and act just like any person, however, they are born through the subconscious mind of another human called the host, and their lives are linked in several different ways"-sounds quite intriguing! These creatures cannot be killed through normal means and their lifespans are limited, however they can extend their lifespan by killing another.
I'm most curious about the story, involving something known as "the Incident" which caused almost everyone to vanish. Lotus Reverie mixes in the usual Visual Novel style and gameplay, with a sprinkle of time management and a turn-based strategy mini-game that all actually sounds quite good. Currently in development by Keinart Lobre, who also released the highly rated One Thousand Lies back in 2016. Always looking for a Visual Novel to pull me back into the genre with something different, Lotus Reverie ~ First Nexus seems like it has the makings for a good story.
