Live an entire year in Edo (17th-19th century Tokyo) and try to become the best Edokko, the "Child of Edo," by participating in the well-being and prosperity of Edo and its citizens. Hire characters with various skills, make them work in the main street of Nihonbashi, and increase their experience until it's time for them to retire.

In this game, not only are there artisans, but street vendors, sellers at the shops, and professions unique to this time and age. The goal of this game is to personify what is known as "IKI," an ancient philosophy believed to be the ideal way of living among people in Edo. Knowing the subtleties of human nature, being refined and attractive — these are all elements of a true IKI master.
