World's End Club debuted on Apple Arcade in September 2020, followed by a Switch release in May 2021. They've got some big names, including Danganronpa writer Kazutaka Kodaka (who's the creative director of World's End Club) and Zero Escape director Kotaro Uchikoshi (who's the writer and director here). It's made by Too Kyo Games, a studio founded by former Spike Chunsoft employees. Reviews have been pretty middling for the other versions, but the plot seems to have pleased some folks who like other games from the big names working on this. It looks to unfold with simple side-scrolling platforming, mild action, gentle puzzling, and a lot of chat and cutscenes as the gang make a long journey. Sounds grim? In Japan, it was even more intense, released under the name Death March Club. And from this mundane starting point, it gets weird. World's End Club is about the Go-Getters Club, a group of weird kids from across Japan whose summer trip somehow ends up in an abandoned undersea theme park, where a clown forces them into a "Fate Game".
