Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“While the core exploration system and game cycle of "SAKIMORI" are already complete, we have determined that data and feedback from actual players are essential to optimizing the weapon build diversity and difficulty balance as a roguelite.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan for the Early Access period to last approximately 6 to 12 months, depending on the progress of content expansion and polish.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“For the full version, we are planning to expand exploration areas and content, as well as implement Steam Achievements. We intend to refine the overall experience based on player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core game cycle—including school map exploration, combat, permanent upgrades before starting a stage, and weapon enhancement—is fully playable. This version offers more features than the demo, allowing players to fully experience the game's unique "horror action roguelite" style.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We are offering a special price during Early Access for those who support our development early on. We plan to increase the price upon the full release to reflect the addition of new content and features.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to gather a wide range of feedback through the Steam Community Hub and social media (X). I will review all player feedback and strive to reflect it in the development priorities as much as possible.”

About This Game

■ "Exploration," "Opposition," and "Purification"

As a "SAKIMORI" in the mortal realm, you must locate and purify the "Cursed Objects" that threaten the world's balance.

Your goal is to explore the stage, upgrade your weapons, and collect and purify cursed objects within the time limit.

You might choose to attempt purification as quickly as possible, or continue exploring until the last moment to secure an advantage before facing the challenge.

It is entirely up to you to decide.

■ Key Game Systems

【Exploration】 Weapon Upgrades and Cursed Object Hunting

Release "Tanshinha" pulses to gather Spirit Essence found within the stage and upgrade your weapon.

As your weapon grows stronger, your chances of surviving against the enemies that hinder your search for cursed objects also increase.

【Opposition】 A Life-or-Death Struggle Against Relentless Foes

Enemies will attack you ceaselessly until the purification is complete.

Fend off the enemy, survive, and accomplish your objective.

【Purification】 A Ritual That Risks Your Life

Carry the discovered cursed object to the "Altar" and begin the purification ritual alongside Saku.

You must survive the enemy's onslaught while the ritual is underway.

■ "Haunted" Locations

Starting with the first mission location, "Night School," various abandoned buildings and other Japanese ruin maps are planned to be added in the future.

■Streaming play

It would be appreciated that you include the Steam "SAKIMORI" URL in the streaming overview, if possible.

There are no problems with your monetization either.

※ If it is difficult, it is recommended to introduce it within the streaming.
