Stand Up is a belonging outside belonging game about rebellion, forming bonds, fighting injustice, and changing the world.
Take on the roles of normal people with the capability to become heroes, explore a fantastical world that houses mankind’s inner feelings, and find a way to fight back using power only you can wield.
The games hold a special place in my heart not only for their amazing stories and characters, but also for the themes of rebellion, acceptance, and fighting for what you believe in. This game is my love letter to those themes and Persona as a whole.
However, you don't need to know anything about Persona to play Stand Up. The game includes explanations of the basic setting and premise, but players are free and encouraged to bring their own interpretations of the world of Stand Up into their sessions.
The Fool focuses on reaching out a helping hand.
➝ Based on the Persona protagonists.
The Magician
The Lovers focuses on making others stronger through support.➝ Based on Ann Takamaki, Rise Kujikawa, and Yukari Takeba.
The Emperor focuses on learning and teaching acceptance.➝ Based on Yusuke Kitagawa, Kanji Tatsumi, and Akihiko Sanada.
The Priestess focuses on breaking free of expectations.➝ Based on Makoto Niijima, Yukiko Amagi, and Fuuka Yamagishi.
