Compare Prices(3 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Akatori
I've been following Akatori since its early buzz, and it's exactly the kind of game that deserves more eyes: a metroidvania built around your staff as both weapon and mobility tool, sending you through timespan-shifting worlds to stop the Amber Storms. The pixel art is intentional and rich, each era breathes its own palette and rhythm. Combat feels weighty without being sluggish, and the map design rewards curiosity instead of punishing you for missing the critical path. What impressed me most was the restraint. There's no forced tutorial bloat, no quest markers nagging you toward the next objective. If you're the type who loves reading environments and figuring out where to go, this is made for you. The Very Positive reviews speak to a community that values exactly this kind of thoughtful, unrushed design. It's not flashy, but it's honest.
