Get ready for the upcoming Sakamoto Days anime and its companion mobile game! Launching soon on Netflix, the anime adaptation of this cult-hit series is accompanied by Sakamoto Days Dangerous Puzzle, a mobile game announced by Crunchyroll.
This isn't your average mobile game. Sakamoto Days Dangerous Puzzle blends match-three gameplay with battling mechanics and character collection, plus a storefront simulation element that perfectly mirrors the anime's plot. Players can recruit a wide roster of characters from the series.
The Sakamoto Days story follows Sakamoto, a retired assassin who traded crime for a family and a convenience store job. But his past catches up to him, and alongside his partner Shin, he proves his skills are still razor-sharp.
A Mobile-First Approach
Sakamoto Days' surprising popularity before its anime debut makes its simultaneous mobile game release particularly noteworthy. The game cleverly combines popular mobile genres like character collection and battling with the more accessible match-three puzzle format, broadening its appeal.
This release also highlights the strong connection between Japanese anime/manga and the mobile gaming market, exemplified by successful franchises like Uma Musume that originated on smartphones.
