About Shin Megami Tensei Devil Children : Koori no Sho

Shin Megami Tensei Devil Children: Koori no Sho presents a version of the Megami Tensei universe designed for a younger audience, softening its typically dark themes. The narrative follows a fifth-grade student named Kai Setsuna, whose brother has been taken by monsters, prompting a quest to prevent an otherworldly invasion.

Central to the experience is a system where players befriend and train demons for combat, a mechanic that aligns with the series' tradition of summoning while also recalling other creature-collection genres. Kai is assisted in this endeavor by a demon companion named Cool, identified as a one-headed Cerberus.
