How it works

  1. Describe your character in one text box. Name Fukuoka in the text.
  2. The game reads the city from your text and puts you in the real Fukuoka, on a 3D map.
  3. Live day by day. Go to real places, meet people, and talk to them in your own words.

Questions

Can I eat at a yatai in Fukuoka in the game?

Yes. Search the map for food near Nakasu and go there. Activities at places change your money and your health.

Can I play a foreigner who moves to Fukuoka?
