Melissa, a very average student suddenly wakes up in an apartment in a town called Despair Town. Soon she finds out that she and 15 others, the so-called Ultimate Students, are forced to play a killing game! To escape, you have to murder one another...
Monoala: Welcome to the first Monoala Theater! Way better than a play from Eugene, right? People do everything for viewers. Pulling pranks, eating disgusting things, doing things like an 'Ice Bucket' challenge, but the line apparently is drawn at a killing game, and that while everyone does like true crime! Help this poor koala get this killing game on air now!
Chapter One - Daily Life
It's surreal. I really hoped this killing game was all just a dream but yet I'm here, one day later, but still here. The anxiety for all this didn't give me a good night's rest in the slightest. Based on the clock it's 6:50 AM... I wanna just sleep longer.
I yawn and check my surroundings. There is a tablet on the nightstand, was that always there?
'A gift from Monoala' it states, because yes, a gift from that evil koala is really something I wanted! But sigh, my curiosity does win, so I grab the tablet.
After opening it with my fingerprint, the tablet shows various options, Map, Regulations, Citizens, Truth Bullets. I try clicking Map first.

The exact same map Martin found earlier displays on my tablet. It also seems like there's a way to view a different map, but it instead only shows a screen with ??? once I try that. I wonder why that is, are certain areas inaccessible?
I try clicking Regulations next, and various rules appear.
Rule 1: Students may only be in Despair Town during the duration of the Killing Game.
Rule 2: "Nighttime" is from 10 pm to 7 am. Some areas are off-limits at night, so please exercise caution.
Rule 3: You are only allowed to sleep in apartments.
Rule 4: With minimal restrictions, you are free to explore Despair Town at your discretion.
Rule 5: You may not harm property of Despair Town; including Monoala or the Monopads.
Rule 6: Anyone who kills a fellow student and becomes "blackened" will graduate, unless they are discovered.
Rule 7: Once a murder takes place, a class trial will begin shortly thereafter. Participation is mandatory for all surviving students.
Rule 8: If the guilty party is exposed during the class trial, they alone will be executed.
Rule 9: If the guilty party is not exposed, they alone will graduate, and all remaining students will be executed.
Rule 10: The guilty party may only kill a maximum of two people during any single "Killing Game."
Rule 11: Additional school regulations may be added if necessary.
I should probably remember those to not get executed accidentally... I try Citizens next, and various information about the others is revealed.
