Notes
The Persona series, which spun off of the Shin Megami Tensei series, is an adventure game series with a focus on summoning “personas” in combat, where characters unleash sides of their personalities with supernatural abilities.
Persona 3 had a horror theme, the player is a student at a school who can switch personas – while his/her dormmates can only manifest one. Organized like a school club, they are the few people who can be awake during a mysterious 25th hour where supernatural forces are unleashed. Building social ties unleashes new powers for the protagonist and allows for branching plots and customization.
The sequel is Persona 3: Fes (which includes a re-release of this game as well as an additional game), and Persona 4 takes place in the same world, but a different location.
