I knew going in to Promise Mascot Agency’s Steam Next Fest demo that there was a high probability it would be absolutely my bag. Made by the same developers behind the excellent Paradise Killer, this is a game about a disgraced yakuza (voiced by none other than the same actor behind Yakuza/Like A Dragon’s very own Kazuma Kiryu) who gets banished to a run-down, forgotten town out in the countryside during Japan’s Showa Era, and is tasked with reviving the local mascot agency business to help win fans, promote local landmarks and lift a terrible curse that’s been placed on this soft but stern former gangster. Check, check, check and check.
