Your Experience

You are an Edo-era merchant who has slipped through time into modern Osaka. The food is unlike anything you've known, but the spirit of trade and flavor lives on. This self-guided exploration game leads you from Ebisu Bridge through Dotonbori and Kuromon Market to the lion head shrine of Namba Yasaka, tasting your way back to your own century.

Along the way you solve challenges in the Questo app, learn historical facts and local myths, and discover hidden spots that only locals know and most tourists pass by. The walk covers about 3.2 km and takes around 1 hour, with no time limit.
