## Description
The events of the game take place in medieval Japan, most probably during the
Edo period (17th to 19th century). The rulers of Edo have heard about a
powerful Dragon God who was sealed long time ago, and whose defeat made it
possible to create the country of Japan. He wants to restore this great power
for his own selfish purposes. The hero of the game is a young warrior named
Gento, whose companion is a feline creature named Benimaru. One day Gento
arrives at a northern village and is attacked by Edo soldiers. Determined to
find out the reason for this hostility, Gento and Benimaru embark on a long
journey across the whole Japan.
_Appare-den: Fukury ū no Shō_ plays like a traditional top-down Japanese RPG,
with world map traveling, random enemies, and turn-based combat. The attacks
in combat are animated; after the player has assigned command to all the
characters, the animation shows the entire party attack at once. There are
also special techniques the heroes can learn and execute in battles.
