Get ready for the upcoming Sakamoto Days anime and its accompanying mobile game! This highly anticipated anime, soon to be available on Netflix, is also launching a mobile game, Sakamoto Days Dangerous Puzzle, as reported by Crunchyroll.
This isn't your average mobile game. Sakamoto Days Dangerous Puzzle blends match-three puzzle gameplay with character collection, battling mechanics, and even storefront simulation, perfectly mirroring the anime's unique plot.
The anime itself follows Sakamoto, a retired assassin who traded a life of crime for a family and a mundane convenience store job. However, his past catches up, and alongside his partner Shin, he proves his skills haven't dulled.
A Mobile-First Approach
Sakamoto Days's mobile game launch is noteworthy. The series has already cultivated a dedicated fanbase before the anime's debut, making the simultaneous mobile release a smart strategic move. The game's diverse gameplay, combining familiar elements like character collection and battles with the broader appeal of match-three puzzles, is intriguing.
This raises questions about the symbiotic relationship between Japanese anime/manga and the mobile gaming market, particularly considering successful multimedia franchises like Uma Musume that originated on smartphones.
