Gameplay
You play as a character and act under the role of L or Kira. As either, you must punish your opponent before you lose (die, get arrested, or are the last one standing). You take turns speaking and saying who you think may or may not be Kira. This costs proposal points (which you get back on your turn) and increases and/or decreases a person's Suspiciousness (red) or Trust Level (blue). People with checks are more likely to be voted out as Kira. A high trust level makes a person less likely to argue with the person they trust. In addition, your enemy also has a supporter.

Kira
Of the two roles, Kira has the most advantages. When someone's trust towards you is 100%, they will give you a hint as to who isn't L. Not only can you vote a person off as Kira, you can kill who you think L might be. If you kill someone who isn't L, your max proposal points are halved.

L
L can check to see if a person is Kira after voting takes place. If a person has an X, they aren't Kira. If someone has 2 circles, they are. After voting takes place, if you arrest someon who's not Kira, your max proposal points drop by twenty.

Other modes
There are a few single and multiplayer modes where you (and a friend in VS) can choose who to be and what role to take. Extras include sound tests and all gameplay portraits of playable characters as well as portraits of another character.

Unlockables
Unlockables come from getting apples in Story Mode through certain conditions. A single player mode and bonus portraits are also unlockable. Near: Get 5 apples. Mello: Get 10 apples. Teru: Get 15 apples. Bonus Episode 12: Get 16 apples. Neo Light: Get 18 apples. (Obtainable only after Bonus Episode 12 has been unlocked)
