The highly anticipated real anomaly-seeking game, 'False Bookstore 2026', is set to take place from April 29 to May 6, 2026, spearheaded by the passionate company Mania. This event builds on the success of the previously popular 'Liar Tour', in which participants embarked on an intriguing journey through Tokyo's Asakusa and Nihonbashi areas, where guides could only provide false information. Having already attracted a whopping 9,000 participants, the 'False Bookstore 2026' will be hosted at the renowned Shosen Grande bookstore, situated in the heart of Jimbocho, Tokyo.

The atmosphere will be ripe with tension as an eerie siren signals the need to hide from lurking horrors. Those brave enough to confront the darkness must stay alert and navigate the terrifying twists and turns of this interactive experience.
