Tokyo Wanted

To hide a tree, use a forest. To hide a person, use a crowd.

The streets of Tokyo. A hundred people crossing an intersection, waiting on a platform...

Walking, stopping, checking their phones.

Three fugitives - the VECTOR - are somewhere in there.

Their goal is simple: slip past the hunters, the ONI, and reach the exit.

Run and you stand out. Stop and you look suspicious.

Can you become just another face in the crowd?

One clue only. Check it against the poster!

The wanted poster the ONI carry lists two traits of a single fugitive.

"Black hair." "Wearing glasses." That is all.

Plenty of pedestrians match both. They are everywhere.

Question them one by one. Narrow it down. Get it wrong.

Then keep going.

The VECTOR can swap appearances!?

The VECTOR can trade looks with anyone in the crowd.

Become someone else before they close in, and walk away clean.

But you will be reported, and the poster will be updated.

Getting caught is not the end.

A captured VECTOR is escorted away and locked in a cage.

Even then, it is not over. Their teammates can come for them.

Leave them behind and run, or take the risk and break them out.

And ONI - do not relax once the cage is shut.

Turn around and it may already be empty...

How to play

Online play for up to 6 players at once.

You can also create private rooms that only people who know the code can join.

If you're short on players, CPUs fill the empty seats, so whether you're playing solo or with a friend, you can jump in whenever you like.

Two teams of three play two rounds, and the higher total score wins.

Roles switch every round - VECTOR one round, ONI the next.

Master both sides and carry your team.

Put "TOKYO WANTED" in the title or the description, and the people watching can find their way here.

Passphrases are masked by default, and a passphrase you reveal hides itself again after 20 seconds. Leave one on screen and forget about it — viewers still cannot walk into your room.

Want your viewers to play with you? Share the passphrase in chat and up to six of you can play together. The free demo works the same way.
