live alive It has a time-travelling story that follows characters from prehistoric times, imperial China, medieval Europe, Edo Japan, the Wild West, the present day, the near future, and the far future. Each chapter has a distinct style of storytelling and game mechanics: it is a kind of game to play Atla clouds.

It’s not an entirely successful experience, but it’s a real original, and a great restoration from the coffers that’s well worth checking out if you’re a student of Japanese RPGs. live alive It was released in Japan in 1994 but it never made it to the West.
