King's Game

A classroom receives anonymous phone orders backed by lethal consequences, turning ordinary social pressure into escalating survival horror.

Synopsis

The Anime Lad

Thirty-two classmates receive messages from an unknown sender calling itself the King. Each message contains an order and warns of lethal punishment for disobedience. Nobody can simply leave the group chat. As instructions become more invasive, ordinary classroom relationships turn into liabilities. Phone notifications have rarely carried such aggressive attendance requirements.

Super Eyepatch Fox

An entire high school class begins receiving commands from the mysterious King. The rules demand obedience and threaten lethal consequences when an order is ignored. With no clear sender and no safe way to opt out, classmates must decide how much they trust one another. Each new message turns familiar social pressure into a survival problem.

Gigguku

A phone buzzes, the whole classroom freezes, and one anonymous order suddenly controls everyone's next move! The King can reach every student at once, which means friendships become pressure points and suspicion spreads before anyone understands the rules. The setup turns an everyday group message into a source of immediate dread that can arrive anywhere!

Father's Basement

The series announces its cruelty loudly and often favors escalation over believable behavior. Still, the opening mechanism is efficient. Thirty-two students receive compulsory orders from an unknown King, with lethal consequences attached. Because everyone sees the system working through ordinary phones, every classmate becomes both witness and possible source of pressure.

The story begins when an entire high school class of 32 people receive a message on their cellphones from a person known only as the "King." The messages contain orders that the students must obey, or they risk the punishment of death. With their lives on the line, the students soon find out that the orders are getting more and more extreme as time goes on.
