Zero Escape is a Japanese puzzle-adventure title that is the spiritual sequel to 2010's Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors. Zero Escape features some returning characters from the prequel as well as new additions, a 3-D environment, 24 unique endings, and dual language support.

Virtue’s Last Reward is a visual novel-style game with puzzle elements that traps college student Sigma, a mysterious young woman named Phi, and seven other strangers in a game of life and death.

They are forced to take part in a game known as the Nonary Game: Ambidex Edition, which will place their lives on the line as they try to escape and discover the truth about why they’re there in the first place.

As a visual novel, Virtue’s Last Reward delves heavily into story, characterization, and reading in general. However, this is balanced by the escape rooms, which consist of point-and-click puzzles that Sigma and his fellow prisoners must solve to move the game along.
