Sydney-based Nnooo recently announced that The Legend of Kusakari will head to Nintendo 3DS later in the month.
The Legend of Kusakari is a Zelda-like that places you in the shoes of Shiba Kari, a “humble grass cutter who keeps the fields clean so brave warriors can focus on defeating evil and in doing so, eventually defeat the Demon King.”
Shiba Kari will need to avoid chaos unfolding around him as he gets his job done.
“We felt that we would like to produce and play a game which had this as a central mechanic,” said Kenichi Fujimoto, localisation manager at the Japan-based developer, Librage. “However, we didn’t feel it would be appealing if players just cut grass, so we introduced the puzzle/challenge element. We also wanted to have a story hook to keep the player interested. Seeing as there are so many stories about a brave warrior beating an evil King, we thought it would be interesting to compose the story from a fresh point of view. In The Legend of Kusakari you are a humble grass cutter who keeps the battlefields clean.”
The game contains 50 levels, all up, and is priced at $6.99 AUD, $4.99 USD or $7.99 NZD.
Expect The Legend of Kusakari from 25 August on 3DS in the Americas, the UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
