Robots

[close] An Original RPG, SYNTHETICS brings you to a world five thousand years in the future. It is a universe where disease and death come second to every person's desires, a world where the dirt and grime of life are handled by synthesized lifeforms. It is a place packed like a powder keg, and it's just itching to explode.

[close] While returning from school, 15-year-old Touya Mochizuki is accidentally struck by lightning and killed by God. As an apology, God allows him to be resurrected, but since he cannot send him back to his old world, he instead reincarnates him into a fantasy world along with a single special request. Touya uses his request in order to bring his smartphone into the new world with him, which God modifies so that the phone will function in the new world. God also amplifies Touya's physical, magical, and cognitive abilities to a certain degree as a further apology for the inconvenience of killing him. Taking full advantage of his second chance at life, Touya befriends many different people in the new world. He begins to travel from country to country, solving political disputes, minor quests, and nonchalantly enjoying himself with his newfound allies. This eventually leads to the discovery of the lost kingdom of Babylon, a shattered floating citadel that Touya is destined to find the various segments of to reform the ancient country. Touya also encounters the "Fraze", mysterious crystalline beasts invading the world through tears in time and space, which are somehow linked to the destruction of Babylon; he also learns that the pieces of Babylon itself hold the key to defeating the resurgent Fraze - a lost robotic weaponry system known as the Frame Gear. http://isekai-smartphone.wikia.com/wiki/In_Another_World_With_My_Smartphone_Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Another_World_With_My_Smartphone
