Survive the Ancestral Spirit Realm

Axe Me Why is a post-apocalyptic horde fighter where every run is a battle for survival and legacy. You play as Tsuki, a lone warrior raised by her village but haunted by the mystery of her missing parents. Trapped in the Ancestral Spirit Realm, she fights to preserve her own strength while ensuring the long-term survival of the people who raised her. Each 15-minute run challenges you to fight, forage, and adapt while defending your village’s fading spirit.

Gameplay Overview

Your goal is simple: endure until you return home.
But survival depends on hard choices. During each run you’ll gather and ration four vital resources: Fuel, Canned Foods, Electronics, and Spirit Essence. These can be:
• Saved to strengthen your village between runs, unlocking permanent upgrades and ancestral blessings, or
• Spent mid-battle to summon Ancestral Powers, unleashing devastating attacks or temporary buffs that can turn the tide.

Every run reshapes the world, introducing new enemy types, random events, and evolving challenges that test how well you can adapt under pressure. Special event islands appear at the 3, 6, 9, and 12-minute marks, offering story moments or boss fights that pause the timer and expand your total expedition time. Returning home at the 15-minute mark completes the cycle, but players who explore every event can expect sessions of roughly 15 to 25 minutes.

Progression and Story Structure

Story progress is unlocked through the total amount of resources collected across all runs. Completing chapters requires gathering milestones of Fuel, Canned Foods, Electronics, and Spirit Essence, as well as defeating elite enemies and earning Appraisal through performance.

Throughout the story, Tsuki’s search for her maternal parents unfolds across eight narrative chapters. Guided by an angel named Modiloi and an ancient expeditioner much like herself, she begins to uncover truths buried deep within the world’s history. What starts as a personal search soon becomes a revelation that could reshape the fate of her people and the realm itself.

Each chapter introduces new enemies, bosses, and quests, expanding the procedural world and culminating in the final test Baloi le Mangeloyi, where Tsuki must face the echoes of her discovery.

Efficient players can complete the story in about 8 hours of gameplay, while retries, exploration, and unlockables can extend total playtime to 20–25 hours.
