About this game

Travel back to olden times and become Director of your own city!

Attract new residents and try to become the greatest city in the land! Add buildings like restaurants and teahouses to make your town a place where samurai and commoners alike will want to live.

This is the past, so don't forget to add some touches of traditional culture! Features like temples and gaming halls can give your city a lot of personality, especially when arranged in harmony with the surrounding environment. You might end up attracting tourists to the town, who will move in if they like it enough.

It's not all fun and games in the mists of history. Sometimes ghost, demons, and other baddies will come to attack your city. You'll have to summon your own Guardian Spirits to banish the evil ones and keep your townsfolk safe. Consider your spirits' abilities and placement for the best effects - strategy is the key word!

With a whole host of land expansion options, facilities, and residents to collect and customize, it's never been easier to create a city that will go down in history.
Start building your ancient city today!

I love Kairosoft games but I actually found this one pretty disappointing. It doesn't make as much sense as their best games. Boosting the buildings and resident scores is limited because you can only use so many items before they're completely ineffective. I hate that. It If they just changed that, it would at least be worth four stars. The fighting is mediocre at best. Just not what I play these games for. I wouldn't mind it so much if the town management made more sense.

Not as fun as Edo Towns. The fighting units being separate from your villagers adds an additional grind for resource and there's not a lot of motivation to do the tower defense fights. It's just not as engaging. I also wished they would change jobs on their own because it was annoying getting max level pop ups every 2 seconds. I played until I got the kairo statue and then didn't want to play anymore.

Ohh myy gawwds! WHY KAIROSOFT DOES THIS AMAZING GAME NOT HAVE A SEQUEL YET. I have never played a game more worth the money than this game. I am seriously blown away. The summons, the contests, the upgrades, watching the houses upgrade, fighting epic chickens, the art style, just everything is so good. It's so full of content I played all day and still hadn't experienced it all. Well done Kairosoft! πŸ’•πŸ¦‹
