Authore: PeytonUpdate:Jan 18,2025

Get ready for the upcoming Sakamoto Days anime and its accompanying mobile game! Launching soon on Netflix, the anime adaptation of this cult-hit series will be complemented by Sakamoto Days Dangerous Puzzle, a mobile game announced by Crunchyroll.

This isn't your average mobile game. Sakamoto Days Dangerous Puzzle boasts a unique blend of match-three puzzles, store management simulation (fitting the series' plot perfectly!), and exciting battle mechanics. Players can also collect a diverse roster of characters from the anime.

The Sakamoto Days story centers around Sakamoto, a retired assassin who traded his criminal life for a peaceful existence running a convenience store. However, his past catches up to him, and alongside his partner Shin, he proves his incredible skills haven't dulled with age.
