## Plot Synopsis

> In a universe like our own, Danganronpa (The video game series by Spike Chunsoft) has had a tremendous impact on the Japanese gaming community. In fact, a die-hard fan of the games decided to open a real Hope's Peak Academy. This individual provided funding for an elite school where only "Ultimates" - students with exceptional talents and skills - would be recruited.
>
>
> Everything, including the architecture of the building, is based on the game. A replica of the despair-filled Hope's Peak has finally become a reality. The founder of this school, however, has ulterior motives. Why? Are they Junko's disciple? Or are they so dedicated to the game that they go too far?
>
>
>
> As soon as sixteen Ultimate Students (all Danganronpa fans, of course) enter the Material Hope's Peak, they realize they've made a grave error. A mechanical bear materializes out of thin air. Most people would find this confusing. But if you're familiar with Danganronpa, you know that this is no ordinary bear..."I mean... What did they expect? Idiots. You can't just expect an Academy based off a murderous school- No, a spiraling pit of despair filled school to not have consequences." **━ Official Plot Synopsis**

## Gameplay

Danganronpa: Fandom's Calling is a Visual Novel developed through RPG Maker MV. In the game the player controls Sachiko Yuzuki as she explores the Material Hope's Peak Academy, where she and fifteen other Ultimate students are trapped to partake in a killing game.

Before its cancellation the game had a fully playable prologue, though a build for Chapter One was later recorded and uploaded through the creator's YouTube channel. The game was originally planned to have six chapters and an epilogue, with each chapter split into two halves; the Daily Life segment, and the Deadly Life segment. While the Daily Life segment would have allowed the player to interact with the other participants, and inititate Free Time Event's with them, the Deadly Life segment would have immediately began after a student's dead body had been found. While neither segment was fully complete, scripts for future Free Time Event's were released through the Fangan's Discord channel.

Following the Deadly Life segment, the student's would have been forced to partake in a Class Trial. During the Class Trial's the player must find and identify the killer using the evidence they collected during the investigation period. Throughout the Class Trial's there would have been multiple obstacles that would have made finding the killer more difficult. One such obstacle would have been seen in the Scrum Debate's, based on the same minigame found in Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony. Though the Scrum Debate's were never programmed into the game, character sprites were designed and later shown by the creator.
