“OBAKEIDORO!” is the winner of BitSummit 7 Sprits “Popular Selection Award”,
Japan’s industry-leading independent game development festival mainly for indies in Kyoto!
“OBAKEIDORO!” is a Japanese asymmetric chase-and-capture tag game with cute (kawaii) chibi characters in a spooky-cute world setting.
Each match lasts only 3 minutes. You play on either the Human team (3 players) or the Monster team (1 player). You can enjoy the game both online and offline in a group of up to 4 players! The Human must keep at least 1 Human out of jail to win, while the Monster must capture and put all Humans into jail before time runs out.
The rule is very simple, but the players are required to strategies their thoughts through the use of characters' skills and traits. If you are in danger, you can activate your handy lantern to stun the Monster. There are more advanced techniques that require teamwork, which is extremely fun to use and could turn the tides in your favor! A Monster’s true strength lies in its unique abilities. Being able to slip through walls or detect footprints – among other unique skills – allows them to capture Humans when they at least expect it!!
The Music, when Monsters are chasing Humans, is heart-pounding and suspenseful, and the Human captured scenes are adorable and comical in a good way!
There is no gore as ESRB is E (for Everyone).
The designs of the characters are all cute, as the maps and Monsters have as few sharp lines as possible, which offers an overall atmosphere far from scary, rather kawaii (cute)!
This features a comfy and safe game that players of all ages can enjoy!
