Kairosoft Takes You Back In Time with Heian City Story

Kairosoft's latest charming retro game, Heian City Story, is now available globally on Android! This city-building simulation transports you to Japan's Heian period, a time renowned for its rich culture and, yes, its ghostly inhabitants. The game is available in English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Korean.

Your Role: Master City Planner

Your mission is to transform a humble area into a thriving, aesthetically pleasing metropolis, most importantly, ensuring the happiness of your citizens. Construct essential buildings like cafes, pubs, shops, and arcades, strategically placing them to maximize in-game bonuses. Pay close attention to your citizens' needs and desires to maintain their contentment.

Confronting the Supernatural

Even the most idyllic city faces challenges, and the Heian period was no exception. Malevolent spirits and demons lurk, threatening your citizens' well-being. Fortunately, you can summon guardian spirits – think adorable, historical counterparts to Pokémon – to combat these supernatural foes.

To keep your citizens engaged and happy, you have a wide range of options. Organize kickball games, sumo wrestling tournaments, poetry slams, or horse races. Victories in these events yield valuable prizes to further enhance your city's development.

Heian City Story retains the beloved retro art style characteristic of Kairosoft games. The miniature aesthetic adds a unique charm, bringing Japan's Heian era to life in a fun and whimsical manner. Whether you're a history buff, a city-building enthusiast, or simply seeking a relaxing mobile game, Heian City Story on Google Play is a must-try.
