In order to connect the younger generation, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, has decided to develop an action game app for smartphones that goes around local attractions with a unique view of the world, reminiscent of 90s video games.
Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, became a big topic by releasing a game-like tourism PR video to let the young people know about the local attractions and attract young people.
Since then, many people wanted to actually make it into a game, so Uji City decided to develop it as a game app for smartphones, spending approximately 12 million yen.
In the game, the protagonist, the macho Heian nobility, defeats enemies while visiting the world heritage Byodoin and other tourist attractions in the city such as San Murotoji.
It has a unique view of the world that makes 90's video games look like it swims in the sea of Uji tea and fights the sharks of the sharks.
Mr. Shinya Tanaka, Director of the Uji City Secretary Public Relations Division, said, “I'm making discussions about how I can have fun. I want you to know Uji City through the game and actually visit.”
Uji City will use crowdfunding to collect funds, and the game will be distributed for free next spring.
