Synopsis of Shangri-La Frontier: A Crappy Game Hunter Takes on a Godly Game
In the near future, where games played on monitors are considered retro, full-dive VR games have become the dominant gaming genre. Advances in video technology have outpaced the evolution of video game systems, resulting in a flood of crappy games. Sanraku, the protagonist of Crappy Game Hunter, delights in playing these crappy games and derives pleasure from overcoming their unreasonable specifications to conquer them. One day, he encounters Shangri-La Frontier, a game that is the complete opposite of crappy games and is universally praised. Sanraku, who has become addicted to godly games that have nothing to do with crappy games, uses the mental strength and techniques he developed through those games to challenge them with a sharp playstyle.
