1. Developed By Spike
Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc was developed by Spike, which both developed video games and published them. Spike is no longer in existence, but that is because it performed a merger with Chunsoft to create what is now called Spike Chunsoft, which remains very active in the video game industry.
2. Released for the PSP
At first, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc was released for the PlayStation Portable in November of 2010. However, its ensuing popularity ensured that it would make it way to more platforms in time. First, there were both Android and iOS in August of 2012. Then, there was the PC in February of 2016.
3. The Main Antagonist Is Monokuma
People who aren’t familiar with the Danganronpa series might nonetheless be familiar with its main antagonist Monokuma. This is because Monokuma is a very memorable teddy bear that happens to be divided into two halves visual-wise, with one half being adorable and the other half being evil. With that said, Monokuma isn’t an independent actor but is instead controlled by the villain behind the murder mystery.
4. The Main Protagonist Is the Ultimate Lucky Student
The setting for Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is a school that caters to the most exceptional students. The main protagonist is an exception to this rule because he managed to get in by winning a lottery. As a result, he has been designated the Ultimate Lucky Student, though in truth, he tends to be unlucky most of the time. However, when his luck does kick in, it can be pretty powerful to say the least.
5. Luck Turns Out to Be Critical
As it turns out, the main protagonist’s rather unpredictable luck proves to be critical for foiling the villain. This is because while the villain might not be the sanest person out there, they are nonetheless an excellent analyst of the situation. Unfortunately, random swings of luck aren’t really something that can be predicted, meaning that analysis becomes less useful under said circumstances.
6. Some of the Characters Have Had More of Their Memories Erased
The villain behind the events of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc has erased some of the memories of the students who have been trapped in the murder mystery. With that said, some of the students have had more of their memories erased than the others, which is by no means a matter of coincidence.
7. There Is More Than One Murderer
Monokuma is used to spur the students on to murder one another. Some of them succumb, which is why much of the game is focused on finding out which students were responsible for the murders that occur over the course of the story.
8. There Is a Bad Ending
Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc has a bad ending that happens when the player accuses the wrong student at the wrong time. Curiously, avoiding this bad end requires the player to trust in someone who has been helping them with their investigations, meaning that there is very much a leap of faith involved. However, an argument can be made that this fits in very well with the themes of the game.
9. The Setting Is Post-Apocalyptic
Danganronpa Chapter 1 Walkthrough
This isn’t revealed until late in the game. However, the setting of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is post-apocalyptic but not unsalvageable. Moreover, the cause of the apocalypse is connected to the murder mystery that the students are forced to undergo.
10. There Have Been Two Anime Series
So far, there have been two anime series based on the Danganronpa franchise. The first anime series called Danganronpa: The Animation was based on Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. Meanwhile, the second anime series was based on a later title. Somewhat confusingly, the second anime series is called Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope’s Peak High School.

Telling the tale of Makoto Naegi, an ordinary student set to attend a school for the anything but ordinary, what should be the start of a bright future quickly becomes the first day of a nightmare, as Makoto, along with the other 14 pupils in his class, pass out on first entering the school, before reawakening to find bars over the school's windows, and locks over the doors. Cut off from the outside world, and forced to play by the rules of the school's evil teddy bear headmaster, Monokuma, the students have a stark choice - they can either remain there forever, where they'll be fed, watered, and clothed, or they can kill a fellow student, without being caught, at which point they'll graduate, and their fellow students will all be killed.
It's a dark story, but an incredibly gripping one, that'll have you hooked to the very end. While most of your time will be spent chatting to your fellow students, and trying to get to know them better, every now and then, your world will come crashing down when a murder takes place. As soon as this happens, it's up to you to examine the crime scene, as you try to piece together what happens, before moving into a classroom trial, where you go up against your fellow classmates, as you try to prove who-dunnit.
Using the clues you've discovered as 'truth bullets' to shatter your fellow student's statements when they go off track, it's up to you to filter through the lies and subterfuge to find the true killer. And with so many twists, it'll never be obvious who it was...
As a game that involves a fair amount of murders, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc has a fair amount of content that parents will want to be aware of.
Despite its grizzly subject matter, the game isn't actually as violent as you may expect. Murders have fluorescent pink blood, rather than red, which takes away some of the initial shock, although the general sense of foreboding, and the way the murders take place is often disconcerting enough. Whether it's someone found with a knife through their chest, or a student being burnt at the stake, this likely isn't one for the youngest of players - although it is mostly a case of what you can't see being scarier than what you can.
Bad language, however, is prevalent throughout (at least from one character, Mondo), with f**k, b***h and b****rd all making regular appearances towards the start of the game. Almost unusually, the game also contains plenty of references to sex, with innuendos galore - although many of them might go over younger player's heads.
Danganronpa 1 Trial 2 Guide
In all, it's probably a game best kept for those in their teens.
