"Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception is a grand tale that will enchant the
hearts and minds of players as it takes them on an incredible journey. With a beautiful
visual novel story experience, intriguing characters, fast-paced SRPG combat,
world-class soundtrack, and more, the game is the perfect escape for adventure gamers!
Mask of Deception begins atop a snowy mountain where the protagonist awakens in an
unfamiliar wilderness, surrounded by deadly creatures, with nothing but a hospital gown
and a splitting headache. However, he's rescued by a beautiful girl named Kuon,
who sports both adorable animal ears and a beastlike tail. Finding that the hapless man
has no memory of anything, Kuon decides to take the amnesiac into her care, naming him
Haku. As their journey takes them across the land, Haku will (reluctantly) encounter
colorful characters (yes, that means more animal people), build deep relationships,
battle ruthless enemies, and find himself inexorably dragged into the political
machinations of the mighty nation of Yamato."
