Item Description

Navinosuke: The Yo-kai Buster is a 2D pixel-art RPG set in a fictional ancient Japan where the balance between humans and Yo-kai is collapsing. Players take on the role of Navinosuke, a mechanical Onmyoji apprentice who travels across the land, investigates supernatural incidents, battles Yo-kai, and forms unlikely alliances with creatures that can become members of the party. The game stands out as the revival and faithful reimagining of a long-lost RPG originally created by an early-2000s arcade development team, preserving its distinctive pixel-art style while expanding its Yo-kai collection and strategic systems.
