Root Infinity Rexx

About

Root Infinity Rexx is a visual novel with music elements where you play as Kazune, a girl drawn into a mysterious pop band’s story. After discovering a hidden demo CD at her new school, she meets five boys claiming to be members of the disbanded group REXX. The game blends dating sim choices with narrative twists as Kazune tries to uncover why the band vanished and whether they can reunite. Gameplay focuses on dialogue-driven interactions, romantic subplots, and music-themed scenarios, all set against a story of ambition and mystery. The game’s charm lies in its dual focus on music lore and character dynamics. The boy band premise leans into otome tropes with five distinct routes, each tied to a member’s hidden past. While the story’s convoluted midpoints may test patience, the emotional payoff of resolving REXX’s fate feels satisfying for fans of niche visual novels. Released in 2015 for Vita, it remains a cult pick for those into underdog band tales and Otomate’s signature style.

Storyline

The rock band "REXX's" debut single was an explosive hit. Not allowed to show their faces in public and do live shows, the band members are represented by mascots of themselves in promotional videos. Even so, they grew popular through word-of-mouth, and eventually garnered attention from all over the world. However, without ever releasing a second single, they announced that they would go on an indefinite hiatus. A reason was never provided for this and caused a lot of confusion. Despite this, their debut single still sold well, and they gained more and more fans each day. Before they knew it, industry insiders started to call them the "legendary" band. About a year later, the protagonist (Mochizuki Kazune), becomes fascinated by REXX's music. She finds a demo CD of at the school she transferred to. To her surprise, the demo CD contained an unreleased and unannounced REXX song! On top of that, there she meets five high school students who introduced themselves as REXX band members. Kazune declares, "In order to revive REXX, I'll do anything!" upon hearing that the five guys no longer intend to perform. As the past entangles and causes discord, will REXX be sucessfully revived?
