Mobile game CUE! -See You Everyday- announced its closure schedule on Feb. 27 2021 (Official Website, Twitter). Service will be ended on 12:00 PM JST @ Apr. 30 2021 and the game will not be accessible afterwards.
Considering the game is heavily story-focused, archiving the game assets will help players get an idea of its core content, and possibly even a fan revival project, considering the scripting was mostly in very readable JSON.
