The game's setting includes a tall tower in the centre of the heavily populated Hell City, and one of the city's many boroughs, the city and region are connected by a rapid transit system, which makes a brief appearance in the game.

Gameplay
There are no "effects" in Hell Diary, instead there are certain items that have various uses, as well as other characters that may join you along the way, companions have their own items to help you explore such as a Multitool.
