Doujin game Grief Syndrome brings Puella Magi to your PCComiket may have become infamous for the sheer amount of doujin manga it yields, but the games that also come from the event are nothing to look down on. Tasofro are a group who have dabbled in this very area, and at Comiket 80 they released their latest title; Grief Syndrome. Grief Syndrome is based on the popular show Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica, boasting art akin to that of SHAFT's crazy style, as well as all five puella magi to choose as playable characters. The game itself is a side-scroller, with the ability to play with up to three players online. Unfortunately for those of us without a copy, there is yet to be a way to purchase it from their website. Hopefully this is a problem time will fix, but in the meantime you can see me after the jump for a few gameplay videos. Oh, and I'm taking Homura. Sorry guys. Thanks for the tip Isaac! Did you know?
