Etheria: Restart

All are buried in an everlasting snowstorm in the real world. To guard the only remaining lives, human-created Etheria, a virtual world to escape from reality, to free their minds and sensations, and to start a new life. Everything from skyscrapers, busiest entertainment and business districts to city parks… A beam of lights amongst millions of glowing data stripes traveling in the air all come together, becoming Etheria. All of it together construct a fanciful virtual world for Hyper-linkers to drift from battle to battle with the help of Soul-priest Animus allies.

You are in a battle with Etheria's urban Animus, who were once ancestral angelic beings. Breaking out from average playable characters in games, Aminuses in Estheria are the virtual beings awakened from the collision between ancient myths and urban city lives. Collect Animus character cards to build up your team of force with all sorts of ethereal abilities and skills together to reveal the hidden secrets in this virtual world. Enter the game with Hyper-linker's ability to travel between the real world and Etheria to complete quests. Etheria starts to collapse under an unknown virus' attack, hidden truths begun to reveal… Joy, fear, the forbidden… The city is constructed on memory, and data invites you in.
