About this game

Daisho: Survival of a Samurai is an Action RPG with casual survival game mechanics and big village-building possibilities. You'll experience a new type of survival game with quests, continuous open world progression, monthly events and your dumb ways to die not harming your fun level.

🏹 Survival Games, casualized

Chop every tree, hunt rabbits and deer, stone and copper mining - resource management are a staple of every survival game, and Daisho is no different. However, we threw away the hunger games in favor of a replenishing stamina pool so you can start every game session on exploration instead of just preventing yourself from dying.

🏛️ Build your own Japanese village estate

From setting up your first camp to building an entire Japanese village, you'll be pretty busy making a home for yourself and all the rescued souls that turn up to settle as workers. Manage their resource refining jobs, build houses and beautify the city with fountains and other decor.

⚔️ Carry a big stick (mind the pointy end)

Craft your weaponry from a selection of clubs, katanas, bows, spears and more. Upgrade them to make pointy ends even more pointy, embellish your craft with gems and their attributes, and poke around at the Shogun armies, bandit bosses and other generally unfriendly folk.

🗺️ Explore Japan and its dungeons

Dive into dark medieval history and unravel the story of Oda Nobunaga, known as the great Japanese unifier; lead the siege to the stronghold of Kyoto, or rebuild the ancient estates and temples around Mount Fuji. Learning about history has never been more fun!

Ratings and reviews

I like this game a lot so far. LOVE that there is no "energy" mechanic. I wish there was larger inventory space though, I spend a lot of time simply managing inventory. It would be nice to be able to sell extra resources for gold in addition to the order board. It would also be cool to have cooking in the game, I just really like cooking in games. Would be cool to be able to enter buildings too. Fun game so far though.

Fun but Buggy. This is a fun game if you like farming resources, beacause there is a LOT of that. I'm actually having fun rebuilding the castle and making quest items. Honestly, I could do without the PVP arena. Just let me explore, gather resources and kill enemies. Its a beautiful game with calming music that is an excellent distraction. Heck, I'd play this on PC. The problem now is that a bug causes it to crash when I open it, so it's loosing it's appeal. If It's fixed, I'll up the rating.

Good graphics, good mechanics, BUT, it took about 30 mins playing to realize how stingy this game is for you to level up. Even in the beginning levels. I.E. ton of items need to b picked up to lvl up, but they give you 6 slots. Add 4 more slots for 200 gold. But it takes several days to get that 200 gold. I can't imagine how long it takes for the next level! Like I said, stingy & cheap game. Forces u to use RL money. Deleted.
