About this game
In the beginning of 21st century, an atomic explosion in the South Pole caused a strange, unseen phenomenon: a black hole appeared and started spreading, threatening to swallow the Earth.
It was named Schwarzwelt , or "black world".

The United Nations send a team of four trained specialists from different countries to venture inside the Schwarzwelt.
The protagonist is an unnamed North American (Japanese, in the original Japanese release) soldier.
Upon arriving into the Schwarzwelt, the team finds out that demons have entered the Earth...
Strange Journey is in many ways "return to the roots" of Megaten games, particularly to the first Shin Megami Tensei .
The gameplay system is very similar to that original template: it is a first-person dungeon crawler, which retains all the basic ingredients of a traditional Shin Megami Tensei title.
The focus of the gameplay is on fighting, negotiating, and eventually and recruiting regular enemies (demons), summoning them afterwards as controllable characters within the player's party.
As in classic Megaten games, it is possible to fuse demons to create more powerful ones.
The game retains the Law-Neutral-Chaos axis, usage of guns during the turn-based combat, spell names, and other characteristic elements of the franchise.
Unlike other games in the main Shin Megami Tensei series , Strange Journey has automatic leveling up.
About Nintendo 3DS
The Nintendo 3DS (2011) added glasses-free stereoscopic 3D and a second analog input to Nintendo's handheld line, eventually building a library that rivaled the DS in size and quality. Because the eShop for digital purchases has since closed, physical 3DS cartridges are the only way to preserve access to many titles — a dynamic that's pushing more collectors toward cartridge-based copies even for games that were originally digital-first.
Gamevaro tracks Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux for Nintendo 3DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This 3DS release dates back to 2018.
