Description

You who are unqualified to drink Meng Po's soup, you have been chosen for the game of life. Three worlds, three rounds. Win all three and you may avert your fated death. Lose any and your bones are forfeit for tomorrow's lunch broth.

Good luck. Our ghosts have prepared their takeout containers, all plastic, non-microwaveable.

The setting of The Final Prize is Soup:

After a disastrous break up, a woman wakes up in the underworld, dead. Luckily (or unluckily), she's been given a chance to turn back the clock and avert her death—as long as she can pass three rounds in a monstrous game of life.

Selected Reviews

  • Wow, what an intense, atmospheric journey! The animated BGs, sprites and CGs add a lot of immersion to this 45k word story (super impressive scope!) I appreciated all the references to Chinese mythology and culture.
    Review, itch.io
  • I love both [story/romance] routes, though Eleven's is more epic, dark, story-extensive and Aoi Shiro-ish, while Mimi's is cute and relationship-focused. And this game looks so beautiful.
    Review, itch.io
  • Absolutely beautiful visuals and effects, an intriguing and spooky premise, and properly horrifying monsters--incredible work all around!
