The {{Sequel}} to ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate'' and third entry in the VisualNovel/ScienceAdventureSeries, the game was released on the UsefulNotes/PS3 and UsefulNotes/XBox360 in 2012. In typical visual novel fashion, the story features branching paths and MultipleEndings depending on the player's choices. ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate'''s Phone Trigger system is replaced by the Phonedroid Trigger, which activates Kaito's tablet computer, allowing the player to utilize its applications.

Ambiguous Disorder is not a trope anymore, but a redirect to a YMMV entry.


* AmbiguousDisorder:
** Elephant Mouse Syndrome
** Furugoori/Frau Koujiro checks off ''a lot'' of the boxes for an Autism Spectrum Disorder: she is a hikikimori who appears to have genuine trouble interacting with other human beings face to face (acting very inappropriately and randomly acting either very averse to or forcing physical contact against their will), has some sort of speech impediment (appears either uninterested in or incapable of matching the volume of her voice to social context, and randomly shouting inappropriately sexual words, swearwords or internet slang), changes her facial expression rarely, extremely, and without relation to context (so she might appear completely expressionless throughout an entire conversation, suddenly laugh out loud for no reason, grin insanely, then just as quickly return to looking bored), considers her best friends to be cartoon characters and is as superhumanely talented with computers as she's inept at every life skill which doesn't involve them.
