Tokaido Duo

Tokaido Duo is set on the Japanese island of Shikoku. Japan comprises four main islands, and Shikoku – whose name means “four countries” – is the smallest of them. It is most known for its 88-temple pilgrimage; pilgrims will hike around the entire island on foot, going from one temple to the next usually in clockwise order, in a 750‑mile (1200 km) journey that lasts about 6 weeks. This pilgrimage begins at the Ryōzenji temple of Tokushima Prefecture and ends in Kagawa at the temple of Ōkubo-ji.

In Tokaido Duo, 2 players pace the fourth biggest isle of the Japanese archipelago. You will discover its many sceneries through the eyes of three different characters, and will thus experience a threefold spiritual journey.

As the Pilgrim, you will visit temples, forests, seashores and hot springs.

As the merchant, you will craft and sell handmade wares.

As the artist, you will paint a variety of beautiful sceneries, and gift them to passers-by.

You will earn points through all three characters' adventures as you slowly become one with their endeavours.
