Crymachina is an action RPG where mechanical girls strive to survive in a post-apocalyptic world to become “Real Humans.''. But what does it mean to be a “Real Human”?
Join the three playable main characters as they fight in fast-paced action RPG combat featuring a myriad of tactics to customize your weapons and challenge your foes.
This heartwarming story of love, told by synthetic beings, will pull at the strings of your biological heart.

See for yourself whether happy catharsis awaits these mechanical girls as they cry, struggle, and overcome their fate.

Prologue

In modern times, a strange disease runs rampant. A young girl named Lebel Distel who teeters on the brink of death hears a mysterious voice–”You have been chosen.” Though taken by darkness, Leben awakens to find herself in a dark, post-apocalyptic world and is greeted by an android named Enoa.

Leben finds herself in Eden, the Propagation Plant, where machines continue to operate with the goal of creating “Real Humans” to restore humanity. Guided by Enoa, Leben becomes entangled in the battle to become a “Real Human.”

Gameplay

Venture between the battlegrounds of Eden and the safe haven of the Imitation Garden. Within Eden, face exhilarating and cathartic battles against mechanical enemies and discover the unknowns of the dark world.

Then return to your base, the Imitation Garden, to relax, customize your weapons, and enjoy lighthearted and heartwarming conversations between the girls.

Last, but not least, here's a gallery of screenshots and artwork including a look at the Japanese "Hanamaru BOX" collector's edition and the artwork for four characters, Enoa (voiced by Hikaru Tono), Leben Distel (voiced by Risa Tsumugi), Mikoto Chigiku (voiced by Ruriko Aoki), and Ami Shito (voiced by Minami Takahashi).
