How it feels

A fast-paced, action-heavy blend of street brawling and daily life management set in a stylized, crime-ridden Osaka.

What players say

Players call it a small, short indie homage to Shenmue and Yakuza with simple beat-em-up combat and a few mini-games. Reviews warn it can be finished in about three to four hours, the map has only a few tiny districts, and the story and combat lack depth. Some note the use of AI voice acting.
