Riverside Gals

Riverside Gals is a story-driven game with adventure sections and action stages. In a world thrown into chaos by a global government, four members of the Black Gal Group set out to rescue their leader, Aira, after she is captured.

Story

In 202X, simultaneous global defaults lead to the establishment of a unified world government. The following year, it dismantles public institutions, including police forces, and installs AI drones and surveillance cameras. It also enacts the “3K law”: property ownership and armament are prohibited, while people are expected to protect themselves by fighting.

As society descends into chaos, people rely on those with power, and a Gang Leader System takes hold at schools. At Mob All Megane Academy in Riverside City, where all the MOBs wear glasses, the gang leader demands a huge payment. Aira, a black gal with a strong fighting spirit, forms the Black Gal Group, and students join either her group or the Gang Leader. Outnumbered and overpowered, the Black Gal Group loses Aira to the Gang Leader. The story follows the four members left behind as they begin a rescue mission.

Characters and combat

The game has 11 unique characters, each with different HP, attack power, attack cycle and attack reach. You choose a character for each stage and protect your allies. From Stage 2, a character selection screen appears at the beginning of the stage.

Players and allied NPCs recover HP by picking up items dropped by enemies. Allied NPCs automatically collect dropped items when their HP is low. Gluten-Free Yakisoba Bread restores 15 HP and drops when Sunglasses Boy or Moa Bodyguard is defeated; Organic Orange Juice restores 30 HP and drops when an enemy MOB girl is defeated. Both items are sold in the school store and are sourced from a five-star hotel in Riverside City. The school offers them because many of its students come from wealthy families.

Game progression

Progression alternates between an Adventure Part and an Action Part with an action screen. The Adventure Part presents messages before moving on to the action stages.
