COLD GAME #コールドゲーム

The ultimate survival story of a con-artist in a glacial world.

The year is 20XX.
After a huge meteorite crash, the earth has been plunged into a freezing ice age.
All civilizations have been submerged in ice, with communication and transportation networks cut off.
In a world where money and status no longer hold any power, the remaining few survivors suffer in extreme conditions.

Genius con-artist Shoko escapes from prison in the chaos of the meteorite crash and finds her way to an evacuee shelter. Unfortunately, the shelter has a “Family First” rule and Shoko is forced to call on help from other survivors, disguising them to seem like her husband, daughter and son.
Determined to survive, Shoko has only one goal, to be reunited with her son whom she was forcibly separated from. Believing that he is still alive in a different shelter, she will do whatever it takes to survive and reunite with him.
Not only that but it seems her fake family also have their own reasons for needing to remain in disguise, and con-artist Shoko’s decisions continue to increase the chaos already ongoing at the shelter.
Will Shoko be able to reunite with her son?
A chilling story of survival depicting the, at times comical, at times serious, true nature of humans trapped in a hostile environment.

氷河期世界で繰り広げられる天才詐欺女の究極のサバイバルストーリー!

時は西暦20XX年。
巨大隕石衝突の影響で、極寒の氷河期に突入した地球。
あらゆる文明が氷漬けになり、通信や交通は遮断。
金や地位は何の価値もない世界で、わずかに残った生存者たちが極限状態で暮らしていた。

天才詐欺師の祥子は、刑務所に服役していたが、隕石衝突の混乱のなか刑務所を脱出し、避難所にたどり着く。ところが避難所はなぜか”家族優先“に運営されており、祥子は夫・息子・娘になりそうな3人の生存者に協力を呼びかけ、家族を”偽装”する決意をする。
「絶対に生き延びてやる!」祥子の生きる希望はただ一つ…それは、強引に引き離された幼い息子との再会。別の避難所で生きていると信じ、息子に会うまではどんなことをしても生き抜く覚悟を持っていた。
さらに“偽装家族”の夫、息子、娘にも、それぞれ誰にも言えない秘密があり、身分を隠す必要が…。
そして混乱する避難所で、天才詐欺師・祥子の選択がさらなる波乱の展開を生んでいく!
果たして祥子は生きて息子に会えるのか!?
追い詰められた環境の中でこそ現れる人間の本性を、時にコミカルに、時にシリアスに描いた極寒のサバイバルストーリーです!
