Kairosoft, renowned for its charming retro-style games, has launched Heian City Story globally on Android. This city-building simulation transports players to Japan's Heian period, a time celebrated for its rich culture and, intriguingly, its ghostly inhabitants. The game is available in English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Korean.
Your Role as City Planner
Your mission: transform a humble area into a thriving, aesthetically pleasing metropolis, most importantly, one that keeps its citizens content. Construct essential facilities – coffee shops, bars, shops, arcades – strategically arranging them to maximize in-game benefits. Careful attention to your citizens' needs is key to maintaining their happiness.
Confronting the Supernatural
Even the most idyllic city faces unforeseen challenges. The Heian era wasn't all serene poetry; malevolent spirits and demons lurk, threatening your populace. Summon guardian spirits – think adorable, historical counterparts to Pokémon – to combat these ghostly foes.
To keep your citizens engaged, a wide array of activities is at your disposal. Organize kickball tournaments, sumo wrestling matches, poetry slams, or even horse races. Victories in these events yield valuable prizes to further enhance your city's development.
Heian City Story maintains Kairosoft's signature retro-inspired visuals. The delightful miniature art style adds a unique charm, vividly portraying a past era of Japan in a fun and lighthearted manner. History buffs, city-building enthusiasts, and those seeking a relaxing mobile game should definitely explore Heian City Story on Google Play.
