Description
Round Robin serves as an underground gambling system for the secret organization Bifrost, operating as a high-stakes tournament where chosen participants manipulate real-world events. The game leverages the Bifrost System's predictive capabilities to calculate odds and outcomes. Congressmen place bets using real-world incidents like criminal investigations or political elections as foundations.
Within this structure, Congressmen assume roles such as the Dealer, who judges rounds and manipulates events by declaring "Judge"—though only with consensus from other players. Participants invest in stocks, wager on event outcomes, or prioritize personnel and events through the "Relation Block." Congressmen deploy Bifrost Inspectors, subordinate operatives who distract authorities, manipulate events, or act as observers. Inspectors carry numerical rankings, with the First Inspector serving as an impartial judge to curb power abuse. The game advances through multiple rounds ("relations"), with the highest chip holder ascending to Dealer. Players falling below the minimum chip threshold face enforcement measures, including asset forfeiture or incineration while seated.
Key rules compel participants to remain seated during relations, prohibit excessive power abuse, and demand the elimination of Inspectors discovered by Sybil System authorities. Congressmen include Koichi Azusawa, Haruki Shirogane, Kyoko Saionji, and Shizuka Homura. Azusawa orchestrates an assault on the Public Safety Bureau headquarters to force Tokyo Governor Karina Komiya’s resignation, deploying latent criminals and Peacebreakers like Jackdaw and Vixen. His ultimate aim exploits Sybil System vulnerabilities to integrate himself into it.
Shizuka Homura, outwardly a Congressman, covertly serves the Ministry of Welfare. He manipulates Round Robin to dismantle Bifrost by redirecting an AI replica of Komiya ("Ma-Karina") to sabotage Shirogane’s investments, causing Shirogane’s demise. Homura then nominates Sybil to absorb Bifrost, triggering the system’s deactivation.
Background elements reveal the Bifrost System originated as a Sybil subsystem designed to present evolutionary challenges. Atsushi Shindo—father of Inspector Arata Shindo—joined Bifrost to shield his criminally asymptomatic son from Sybil, exchanging his brain for organizational integration. This history allows Azusawa to exploit Arata’s connection during the Bureau siege.
The Round Robin system deactivates following Homura’s intervention and Sybil’s assimilation of Bifrost, ending its role in societal manipulation.
