Fragrant Story is an RPG which was made in the spirit of other tactical RPGs such as Final Fantasy and EarthBounds. It features the characters from another of Kage's games, Otosan, who enter a virtual reality world, in order to protect the vegetation that blossoms in this alternate reality. The game features music from composer Hitoshi Sakimoto, known for previous, better known works including Final Fantasy XII. Voice acting is done primarily by three people - Kage himself, Gideon Emery (known for Wolfenstein, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Teen Wolf) and Nicole Fantl (Final Fantasy XII. Star Wars: Episode II, One Less God); they voice the characters Wolfsbane, Rhubarb and Mango, respectively.
The game is expected to have a limited physical run, with preorders of the game starting at $35 USD. The cheapest physical release also includes the entire game soundtrack on CD and via digital download. There also exists a Collector's Editon (or CE), which includes various collectors' items such as a keychain, cards, pins, and an artbook; additionally, you can buy Fragrant Story CE signed by the director. If you simply want the game by itself, it is available from the Nintendo eShop at only $4 USD from now until March 2023, when the Nintendo eShop for the 3DS is expected to no longer be available.
