Tribe Nine Paid Item Refund App...

Akatsuki Games announced it opened the Tribe Nine applications for players to apply for a paid item refund and shared unimplemented story segments in Japanese for some chapters. The refund process takes place within the game app itself. The story chapters appear on a page on the official site that also included art of characters and locations that didn’t get to appear.

Getting a refund for making Tribe Nine paid item purchases is an involved process, and it applies to anything bought after April 10, 2025. You need to launch the game and select “Refunds Regarding End of Service” when you’re on the title screen. When you go to that screen, you can opt to apply on a Refund Application for Paid Item Purchases Made After the Publication of the Roadmap. You need to supply your email first, then the verification code for it to choose your refund method. As part of this process, you’ll get a Refund ID. Akatsuki didn’t state when to expect money back, but did say to directly contact the company about any issues. 

As for the unimplemented story scripts, descriptions, character art, and location art in Tribe Nine, the official directory page offered links to story chapters for three, four, and five. These are largely presented as scripts. However, there are Chapter 4 and Chapter 5 pages that show the official art and images for characters we would have met and places we’d have gone.

Here’s a gallery of the Chapter 4 character Akatsuki shared.

And here are the folks from Chapter 5. 

Tribe Nine is available on the PC and mobile devices, and it will shut down on November 27, 2025. The anime is available on Crunchyroll.
