Universe for Sale Is a New Visual Novel Set in a Bizarre Bazaar on Planet Jupiter

Akupara Games and Tmesis Studio's latest adventure, Universe for Sale, is now available! Following on the heels of successful titles like The Darkside Detective series and Zoeti, this new game promises a unique and captivating experience.

Is the Universe Actually for Sale?

Set on a Jupiter space station, a bizarre bazaar shrouded in acid rain and mystery awaits. Here, witty orangutans work the docks, and cultists barter flesh for enlightenment. The universe itself is for sale, thanks to Lila, a woman with the extraordinary ability to create universes from her very palm.

The game begins in the dilapidated mining colony shantytown, where you play as the Master, a skeletal cultist from the Cult of Detachment. Explore the ramshackle colony, filled with quirky shops, until you encounter Honin's Tea House, Lila's shop, and the mystery surrounding her. The narrative unfolds as you switch perspectives between Lila and the Master.

As Lila, you'll create universes in a captivating mini-game, mixing and matching ingredients to produce stunning visual worlds. As the Master, you'll delve into the philosophies of the Cult of Detachment and encounter the Church of Many Gods.

The story unfolds gradually, inviting you to theorize about the unfolding events. Each character, whether human, skeletal, or robotic, possesses a unique tale, and the richly detailed world encourages exploration.
