Our take on 无常

Players looking for a single-track RPG may hit a wall when the tavern systems ask them to plan menus, recruit staff, decorate, and upgrade the business. The game also shifts into mining, fishing, and island cultivation, so those seeking only story encounters will encounter several other activity systems.

What is 无常?

Play as Wu Chang, an enforcer of the underworld who travels to different worlds to guide lingering souls back.

Explore these places, experience local customs, and uncover stories connected to the souls. The game also includes managing a tavern: create drink menus, recruit singers and waiters, decorate and upgrade the business, and compete with other establishments. Other activities include mining for gemstones and smashing monsters, fishing, and growing flowers on an island. Flowers can be given as gifts or exchanged for money. Rooms on the island can be decorated with furniture. Exploration also involves collecting unusual items, meeting distinctive characters, and earning achievements. Each soul introduces a character and a story with joyful and sad elements.
