About

The Game of Seikyu is a captivating oriental-style farming simulation adventure set in the mystical land of Seikyu, home to legendary creatures from around the globe. The town’s residents lead their own unique lives – like Shuten-doji, the elegant bar owner who’s always inebriated, Yoji, a folklorist with a sharp wit and a rebellious streak obsessed with ancient deities, or Otter Andolini, a former Mafia boss who’s now more concerned about his dock than anything else. Yet, beneath the tranquil facade, the town is persistently under threat from the power of Ancient Deities. As a newcomer, can you effectively manage the inn bequeathed to you by the Inari God?
