What is the story outline of "City God Alice"?

The story takes place in the ancient temple town of Jiantan Mountain, deep in the mountains.

When the protagonist, Lin Chengdong, was young, he signed a mysterious contract with the City God of Jiantan Mountain City. This contract robbed him of his memories of the transaction and destined him to die at the age of twenty-one, becoming an official under the City God after death.

Years later, when he was completely unaware that his final year had arrived, an unexpected visitor—the acting City God "Alice"—came before him.

She extended a hand of cooperation to him, but with a condition—

Alice hopes that Lin Chengdong will give up his remaining year of life as soon as possible and immediately take up the post of City God.

Amidst the mysteries of this contract, the entanglements of ghosts, and the grudges of heroes from a century ago, every choice you make will determine the fate of Lin Chengdong and the survival of the entire mountain city.

This is the inner world of someone you care about, and also the labyrinth you are about to face.

In the horizontally-oriented scene of "Yuan Chen Palace," which is disturbed by clairvoyance, hallucinations, and the unknown, you will face:

• An enemy formed from inner resentment and deep-seated inner demons

• Rejection, resentment, and obsession become obstacles to solving the mystery.

• Guiding clues subtly formed by beautiful memories

The battles are based on turn-based strategy and horizontal positioning, and also incorporate a "Sanity (SAN)" system.

• Your positioning will determine whether you can dodge those bizarre and deadly attacks.

• The effects of spirit enhancement and the cover provided by your teammates are what help you overcome difficulties.

• The lower your sanity (SAN), the more unstable your abilities become—the original enhancements may even backfire when they collapse.

Both psychology and tactics are indispensable—only by remaining rational can one overcome a crisis.

In addition to combat and exploration, you can also return to the City God Temple to experience unique daily gameplay:

• Enhance the reputation of the mountain town by handling daily office work and walks.

• Build bonds with the yokai executives through daily rituals and enter chapters that belong to them.

• They expand temples, create puppets, and enhance their own capabilities through construction and resource allocation.

Witness how the "temple master" transforms the supernatural into a part of daily life.

Whether you're drawn to the story, style, combat, or strategy, City God Alice offers a unique supernatural RPG journey.
