Kids love simulation game apps just as much as teens and adults do, but sim app gameplay is often driven by pressure to make in-app purchases and that makes them less than ideal apps for kids. Kairosoft specializes in creating sim apps for all ages where there’s never pressure to make in-app purchases.

An all-new “Cauldron” feature also allows you to test your alchemic expertise. Toss items obtained from quests or shops into the Cauldron and your armory might receive a rare addition.

Rewrite the history of feudal Japan with an army of the ultimate guerrilla warriors: ninjas!
