This is an action game in which players help sheepdogs defend a flock of sheep from wolves and bears that try to run off with the sheep. The dogs move around the flock and bark at the animals to turn them away. If the dogs are unsuccessful, they can get hit and stunned as the wolves/bears capture the sheep.

Shogi

This is a board game in which players compete in games of Shogi, also known as Japanese Chess. The game features Japanese scenery and props, traditional Shogi game pieces, and Asian-themed sound effects.

Sweet Reversi

Tonzurakko

This is a racing game in which players help a sea otter swim toward a goal while avoiding a pursuing killer whale. Along the way, players collect shellfish to recover stamina, dive to avoid obstacles, and throw shells to slow down the whale. If the whale catches up to and swallows an otter, a “cartoony” otter-angel floats above the water.
