Nusakana

Nusakana is an open-world JRPG about visiting a remote island after receiving a mysterious letter that promises answers about your past. You decide whether the trip brings a simple vacation, answers, or something more. The game emphasizes freedom of approach and decisions, while time continues to pass rather than following a linear, guided story.

Explore the island

Nusakana lies south of the continent, with lush forests, tranquil waters and a nature-friendly local population. The island holds secrets and resources, but also dangers. Plan your supplies and activities carefully: hunger and insomnia can bring an adventure to an end. People and wild beasts react differently depending on the time and weather.

The game features a cast of over 30 characters and 20 recruitable maiden party members. You can interact with and date 19 recruitable party members to learn their secrets and unlock their potential. The Nusakanans welcome visitors and struggle to learn outsiders’ language; their native language is Indonesian.

Fight and prepare

Battles use a complex, turn-based system inspired by classic JRPGs. You can mix and match party members to suit the enemies you face. Gather raw resources and exotic vegetation across the island, then craft items to help you on your adventure.

You can also sell Nusakana’s commodities and handicrafts to a traveling merchant from overseas. Fishing is a core mechanic: learn about the environment and fish characteristics to improve your chances of catching a giant, legendary fish.

Island adventures

The game offers over 20 hours of playtime, accompanied by a soundtrack inspired by multicultural jazz and bossa nova.
