About the Game

Story

Flashback to the 80s. The Creator, a genius of his time, creates a video game console called Narita One with its flagship title being a game called Narita Boy.


Narita Boy becomes a tremendous hit! Copies of cartridges are flying off physical shelves worldwide. Within weeks Narita Boy is the best-selling video game of all time, critically acclaimed for its power-fantasy wielding Techno-sword and taking players on a journey like no other.

Meanwhile, inside the binary code, the digital realm connects with reality. Him has returned and deleted The Creator’s memories. Supervisor program, Motherboard, and her agents have activated the Narita Boy protocol.

The Stallions are coming, and the Digital Kingdom needs a hero.

Our Review

Everything that Narita Boy dares to do is to be applauded. I hope I am not wrong in pointing out that this will be a game to talk about in the near future. Spanish development advances more and more and Narita Boy is one of those games that comes to mind when we think about what we are capable of doing. Without being better or worse than anyone else, Studio Koba has managed to create a title with its own setting that draws on the American world of the 70s better than what Americans would do if they wanted to make a title set in the 70s today.
