Sometime in the future, the Tokyo Metropolis was destroyed in an enormous earthquake.
It was subsequently rebuilt, with each constituent city constructed as a floating island, connected by flying trains and cars.

However, the peace of Tokyo is threatened once more by an alien invasion.
Hokin, who leads the Planetokio Defense Force from a hidden base inside a ramen shop, sends his pupil Iken to exterminate the alien threat using his specially-developed anti-alien ray gun "Narunaru MK1".
Tokyo Wakusei Planetokio is a surreal adventure game from the creators of LSD: Dream Emulator and the Eastern Mind series .
The bulk of the game consists of side-view exploration segments, in which the player controls Iken as he moves about the various wards of Tokyo, speak with residents, solving puzzles to access no areas, and collecting items to use against the alien threat.
There are occasional stealth sections where Iken must avoid patrolling enemies without being caught, and each of the seven chapters culminates in a boss fight against the alien.
In the boss fights, Iken must select items from his inventory, then chooses to fire them at the boss either normally or charged with energy, often with amusing results.
If Iken is captured or loses to a boss, he wakes up at a nearby hospital and can try again.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Tokyo Wakusei Planetokio for PlayStation 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 Tokyo Wakusei Planetokio 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 PS1 release dates back to 1999.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Tokyo Wakusei Planetokio, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
