【終天教団】保健省ルートは“極限脱出アドベンチャー”!? 主人公役の斎賀みつき本人が開発陣と先行プレイ！（Nintendo Switch™/Steam®/DMM GAME PLAYER）
DMM GAMES and the team led by Kodaka Tookyo GAMES latest work SHUTEN ORDER Pre-Launch Gameplay First, please take a look at this. You can’t remember anything? Not even how you died? By the power of God, your life was extended. If you clear God’s trial, you’ll be revived as your old self with your memories intact. God’s trial… What should I do? Okay, allow me to teach you everything! You need to make the criminal who killed you confess to the murder! This program features pre-launch gameplay of SHUTEN ORDER, Scheduled for release on September 5th. This is Mitsuki Saiga who voices the protagonist, Rei. Yes. Please. Thank you for having me. And today we have a guest, character designer simadoriru Yes, hello, I’m simadoriru. I am a character designer. Thank you for having me. Thank you. And continuing from last time, Kodaka-san, Nakazawa-san, thank you as well. Thank you for having us. Yes, as you saw in the opening trailer, SHUTEN ORDER begins with the protagonist’s death. From now on, we’ll have Saiga-san search for the culprit who killed the protagonist, Rei, and make them confess. Yes, so from these five people, we’ll have Saiga-san choose who she thinks killed the protagonist, Rei, and proceed with the game. Yes. Last time, was it the Ministry of Justice person? Yes, Kishiru Inugami from the Ministry of Justice. We chose him. How was it? Was Inugami suspicious? Well, no doubt. Everyone seems suspicious. Now the question is who to choose this time. That’s right. Who looks suspicious. We’ll also use God’s power to choose this time as well, so it’s foolproof. Foolproof. If you follow the intuition and choose someone, that person is the culprit. I see. On the other hand, when it was Inugami, we were told it would definitely be correct, so I’m curious about how the story ended. Ah, right, that’s true. There are five people, and if you can choose, what does that mean? Well, I’ll choose this person. I’d like to choose the person next to him. Yes. This person. Yes. Yugen Ushitora. Yeah. Yes. Well, let’s see what kind of story unfolds. The Ministry of Health doesn’t seem likely. He’s a doctor. Something outrageous
He is supposedly a doctor. With that appearance. His clothing is quite undoctor-like. Like a kabuki actor. He looks like he could be an actor. Right. This is, genre-wise, an Extreme Escape Adventure. A death game. Absolutely impossible for me to beat. A Gatekeeper? Gatekeeper to the Afterlife In other words, no one shall pass. He won’t let anyone through to the world of death. I see. What kind of route will this Yugen Ushitora be? There’s footage, so please watch. Extreme Escape Adventure Yugen Ushitora and others are abducted, finding themselves in an eerie 3D maze… Survive the death game and escape from the locked room. Nakazawa-san, what’s this situation? Yes, when Rei visits Yugen Ushitora to question him. During the interrogation, a mysterious armed group attacks them, and they get kidnapped. Then, they lose consciousness, and when they wake up, they find themselves somehow in this maze, where they meet this girl who just appeared, and they are discussing where they are. Right now they are looking at the smartphone she has and talking about how it seems like their whereabouts are being broadcast online. Being live-streamed, that’s what we just discovered. I see. Well, so we really don’t understand what’s going on at all. This girl herself is suspicious too. There’s a somewhat eerie atmosphere about her.
This girl, by the way, introduced herself as “a high school student.” She introduced herself as “just an ordinary high school student.” But she’s anything but ordinary. So here we learn it’s a death game. I see. They are finding out that it seems like a death game will be conducted. By the way, Rei Shimobe is wearing a mask. Ah, that’s right. Wasn’t wearing it in the prologue. This mask is a fashion item in Shuten Order. Oh, I see. Yes. So some of the characters wear masks here and there. It’s basically a disguise since Rei is the Founder. Ah, that’s right.
If Rei’s face is revealed, the true identity would be exposed. By the way, there was Ushitora earlier. Is he also participating in the death game? That’s right. He was also kidnapped and confined somewhere else. I see. Since it’s a death game, we don’t want the subject of our interrogation to be killed in the death game. This is troublesome. We don’t want to die, but we don’t want him to die either. That’s right, because we suspect him.
– Yes, exactly. Someone with a different vibe appeared. Suddenly like a VTuber. A live streamer? Right, this is where the streamer appeared after we discovered it might be live-streamed. I suddenly thought a different person came. And comments were appearing around there.
– Yes, exactly. The viewers are commenting now. In this situation, to interrogate Yugen Ushitora, please do your best to survive together with him. Yes. This is after the death game has actually started. I see. So that’s why Rei looks tired. You need to escape quickly or you will be caught and killed. Ah, this is now the adventure part. That’s right. Please find a hiding place. I see. So you don’t get caught. Continue further here. Really like an escape game atmosphere. You might get lost, but there are landmarks, like those cameras, and graffiti in various places,
so if you’re going around the same place, you’ll notice. I see. If you go straight too much
– No, keep going. Hmm. Ah, you can go here too. But It says it’s a dead end. He said something. Um, this way. Ah, he went, he went Ah. He’s kind. You’ve already hit a dead end, so I’ll tell you, kind of thing. I tried to hide, but it’s locked, so I can’t open it. It says “Lock.” He’s tried this several times already, but locked doors won’t open unless you solve puzzles. Oh. Within the time limit. Solve the puzzle. I’m too much of a beginner, so I definitely can’t do it. But it’s easy, this one. This is a puzzle where you fit blocks neatly into the gaps. The time limit is shown in the upper left and progressing in real-time. 5 minutes, yes, that’s right. About 6 minutes. And can this be rotated? It can be rotated. Ah, this one. Yes. You can spin it around. If I rotate this, this fits. Ah, I see, I see. Ah, it looks doable, it looks doable. It looks doable, it looks doable, it looks doable. Like this, yes, yes. Fit it here. Yes. And finally, like this. Yes, one more. Put this here. Fit it. Yes, success. Oh. I see. Ah, one more. No way. There are 2 puzzles. Ah, it’s true. Seriously. Um, which one is this? It gets a little harder. Ah, but this is here. Huh, here. With this. With this. Yeah. Really? Well, it seems like it. Yeah, with this. Puzzle games are… Is this that again? Rotate it. There seems to be rotation. Yeah. This one. Saiga-san has great unity with Rei Shimobe. This one. Yeah. Ah, it works, it works. It works. And I need to rotate this. Rotate this, rotate. No way. No. Huh? Ah, that, that, that, that. I see. Yeah. And here’s a hint. Kind. This VTuber is kind. Oh. That was easy. And if there’s one more, I’ll really be angry. Well, you cleared 2 out of 2. Ah, it’s true. Yes, unlocked.
– And now we can enter. I see. It opened. Tired again. Looks very tired. We managed to hide safely and escape from the people chasing us. We somehow survived. What we’re being made to do in this death game is a number guessing game, where everyone is assigned a number. Without knowing your own number, find someone with a smaller number than you and touch them.
Then you can kill that person. The rule is that if you survive until the end and kill someone, you can escape first. Ah, it says the number is confirmed. Yes, exactly. Apparently Rei is number 4, a weak number. So very likely to die. Ah. If found, you can’t win. Now, what to do – that’s the development from here. Exciting. It has already started. That’s right. This is a puzzle where you connect the same colors.
When you connect, you select and can draw lines. When connecting, don’t erase other lines. Don’t overlap them. That pattern. The really difficult one. Well, later on there are also challenging puzzles like this. But you have to think carefully. Isn’t this still on the easier side? Right. This is still on the easier side, isn’t it? Wait, I might be able to do this. I might be able to do this. Hey, but there is still one more like this again. Ah, but it looks doable. It shows 1 out of 2. That’s right. So when this is done, there’s one more. It says 1 out of 2. I should finish the easy ones quickly without taking my sweet time then. Yeah. That’s right. See. Oh no~ I might be good at these kinds of games. Ah. I could see this. Huh? I could see it, I could see it. This is still the creators’ kindness though. Like this, like this. These kinds of things, people have their strengths and weaknesses. Right, I might be good at this. Yeah. Some people are good at action, others are good at these thoughtful puzzles. But there’s a time limit. This is super fast. Fast. Fast, fast.
– This is easy.
– There’s leeway.
– Yes. I can do these kinds of games. Running and escaping.
That kind of thing makes me nervous and makes me go “eek.” Well, you might be good at this death game mode. Ah, if it’s this type. Setting the story aside. Right. The story seems pretty scary. Will this be broadcast as it develops? That’s right. The UI is also different from last time’s Ministry of Justice. Ah, yes, exactly. Everything. I see.
You can play without getting bored each time. Yes, so we still haven’t cornered Ushitora yet. Right, Ushitora-san didn’t appear. Haven’t seen him yet. Yes. But Ushitora is also being cornered? That’s right. He’s in a pinch behind the scenes. I see. I see.
– And sometimes you see him too. So this concludes the Pre-Launch gameplay for today. How was it, Saiga-san? These puzzles were quite in my wheelhouse. But the story will probably be very heavy,
so I’m looking forward to how my feelings will be moved by seeing that. It’s a story with lots of betrayal. And I want to meet Ushitora-san. We still don’t know anything about him.
– That’s right. What happens after this? Development-wise. First, who is the organizer holding this death game, and why are they doing this, and who is this streamer who appears here? Such mysteries come to the forefront, and everything connects to why Rei was kidnapped and brought here. Hmm. A big mystery is solved at the end. We call them the five Ministers, so you’d think they’re very important people who control everything,
but they actually become the victims. After the Founder died, a lot of strange things happened in this Shuten nation. This is one of those distortions. I see. Please look forward to SHUTEN ORDER, releasing September 5, 2025. Now, from here we’d like to interview the creators of SHUTEN ORDER. Let me introduce our guest again. Character designer simadoriru. Yes, I handled character design and other things for SHUTEN ORDER. I’m simadoriru. Thank you for having me. Thank you. Yes, thank you. When doing character design this time, did Kodaka-san give you requests like what kind of characters he wanted? Rather than individual characters, overall, well, religion is a rather edgy and sharp theme. So that it wouldn’t become too heavy but still maintain eeriness and uniqueness,
he asked me to design characters with vivid design lines. Did you request not just character designs, but also the worldview, Kodaka-san? While designing backgrounds, what kind of country is this Shuten nation,
what kind of people are there, what kind of fashion is trendy?
We asked simadoriru to design various things including a worldview from those perspectives. However, since this is a religious theme, if it became monochrome-like
it would feel quite heavy, so we requested from the beginning to make it bright and flashy. That was pretty much the form we requested from the start. Hmm. The extreme escape-like indoor spaces or
confined spaces we saw earlier, did you design those too? The actual work is requested from various people, but I’m quite involved in the concept part and direction part. Yes. Things like parades were also created based on
image boards that simadoriru drew early on. And there are five attractive Ministers this time. Among the five, do you have a favorite character? I know it’s hard to choose. Well, I love them all of course, but Ushitora, whom we couldn’t meet in the game part earlier, is a good character. Ah. He didn’t appear on screen even once. Not even once. He’s a Minister of Health, but he doesn’t look like one.
He wears Japanese clothing, and has an appearance where you can’t tell what bloodline he has, he has a unique appearance, but as you progress through the story,
you’ll think “wow” – he’s a character I really like. Inugami feels very directly suspicious,
but compared to him, Ushitora has a bit of a good person feel. But we haven’t talked to him yet. Ah. Haven’t talked even once. He’s detail-oriented and neurotic, and somehow has an attitude like “let’s all work hard together,”
which conversely seems fake. So there are many parts where you think “is this really true?” He looks like a good person but actually isn’t – that kind of character. And simadoriru-san, I think you also designed sub-characters this time.
Do you have any favorite sub-characters? Yes. Um, I really designed so many that it’s hard to choose just one, but Noa Fukune who’s being shown on screen right now is quite a favorite character. So expressively rendered in 3D, she’s yawning now. You can clearly tell she’s in a different dimension. Right, so you can distinguish between people who are there and people who are streaming. How many sub-characters are there in each chapter? How many did we do? I haven’t counted. It depends on the route. Some routes don’t have many. About ten, or a little less on average. But there are five routes. That means times five. That’s right. At least fifty to sixty characters.
– The five Ministers don’t get involved in other routes.
It’s a story about the protagonist Rei Shimobe, the Minister, and sub-characters. They’re necessary to construct the story. What commonly appears in each route is basically Rei Shimobe,
Himeru, and Mikotoru – these three. There’s someone named Rei Shimobe. Shimobe (servant) + Dorei (slave) = Shimobe Rei. Ahh. When we were deciding the name, “servant of angels or slave,”
we thought that would be fine, such a casual way of naming. And this SHUTEN ORDER has a very well-crafted story and adventure, as mentioned.
simadoriru-san, do you know the secrets of the story? Of course, yes. Of course, knowing and remembering the many secrets,
I designed the characters. Yes, of course. Among those, is there something you could tell us just a little bit, within what you can say? Within what I can say? Well then, I’m very sorry, but Ushitora is (***********). Ehhh, he’s not a good person at all. Seriously. I see. Well, that’s right. That guy is (***********). Please add a beep sound. Really. Seriously. That’s a bit shocking for me. He looked like a good person. Right. Well, it’s that thing about those kinds of people. That’s right. The axis of deduction about who killed the Founder will probably waver quite a bit.
Is he suspicious? Well, maybe he’s a good person. Actually suspicious after all, like that. Are such secrets reflected in the character design? That’s right. So for Ushitora’s character design,
if you look at the detailed parts,
there are combinations of parts that normally wouldn’t be combined. Hmm. In the opening scenes, he seems like everyone’s big brother figure,
playing a role of moving the conversation along and encouraging everyone, but doesn’t he look a bit unfocused in the eyes, or something like that. Hmm. The way he opens his mouth is quite exaggerated, things like that. Yes. I’ve been involved in such details, so I hope you can enjoy playing while treasuring those subtle inconsistencies. Playing, knowing that, does change the impression a bit. For second playthrough or using information from other routes,
I think you can enjoy it even more. Thank you. Are there other hidden points in the design? When choosing the route, well, there are acrylic stands here too,
but the Ministers are lined up in a quite distinctive pose. I chose these poses for a reason. Oh. So maybe you can think of why they’re posing like that while playing the game. That might be fun. It becomes clearer when compared with the group illustration.
– Ah, right. Yes. In that group illustration, everyone is holding a part of the Founder’s body. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, the Founder was murdered and dismembered, so such things are hidden in various places throughout. Yes. I understand. Thank you. Finally, simadoriru-san, could you give a message to the viewers? This time I really designed many characters while incorporating various elements,
so please enjoy playing while exploring, being suspicious, and having fun in the main game.
Thank you. Yes, thank you simadoriru-san. Now, let’s go over some product information about SHUTEN ORDER. First is this. The pre-order bonus is an original novel containing a prequel episode. It depicts the story of how Manji Fushicho became the Ministry of Security,
