About
In a world where mysterious plants are spreading all over the earth, emitting toxic spores as they grow, a small group of survivors seeks shelter on the back of a giant, wandering creature they call 'Onbu'.
Become their leader, build their settlement and form a symbiotic relationship with Onbu to survive together in this hostile, yet beautiful post-apocalyptic world.
A functioning village is the basis of your survival. Build your settlement and expand it over Onbu’s back. Plan production chains and optimise them to utilise the limited space as efficiently as possible. Create a society that can overcome any challenge.
Living on the back of another organism comes with its own set of challenges. Will you live in symbiosis, bond with Onbu and survive on mutual trust? Or will you become a parasite, only aiming to ensure a better life for your villagers? The choice is yours.
Continuously adapt your village as you travel through a multitude of different biomes, each with its unique climate zones, opportunities and threats. Scout your environments and send out foraging missions to gather rare resources and ancient artefacts.
Remnants of the old world hold knowledge that has long been forgotten, but can be unearthed by your villagers. Find and research these technologies, but use them wisely, as progress can be a double-edged sword.
Ensure the survival of both your villagers and your Onbu, even though poisonous spores, merciless weather, bloodsucking parasites and many more challenges mean that the odds are often stacked against you.

Add-ons
Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; Xbox, Nintendo publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.
Updates
Build ids and update times come straight from Steam's PICS — the same source SteamDB reads. Patch history grows as we record new builds.

Reviews
I really like this game, but there are a lot of things this game still needs to make it long term playable. I actually find that the excuse of "it would take too long" when it comes to assets from the dev or devs is really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lazy. This game is not cheap; it's 30 dollars on Steam. It has a whole Ghibli like animation for the opening theme, and a storyline. I expect better. The fact that there is not multi-select for harvesting, poor building movement (they should all be permitted to move and you should be able to scroll the map when moving a building), and confusing or unintuitive feeding mechanics, as well as the inability to rotate buildings when placing them is nearly unacceptable. I am still recommending this game because it has potential, but these things truly need to be added to make this game actually worth $30.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Pretty fun game, I cant wait for an Avatar mod turning them into LionTurtles and benders ;P
Sir Stomps was wonderful. I hope your onbu is just as good.
재미들리면 밤새가며 할 정도로 재미있습니다 유일한 단점은 주민들의 인공지능이 지적생명체라고 하기에는 다소 지장이 있다는 점이에요 곰팡이가 세계를 정복하면서 주민들의 머리에도 뇌 대신 곰팡이가 들어앉았나 싶은 수준의 지능입니다... 아마 이 지능으로 난이도와 편의성 밸런스패치를 한 게 아닌가...
Studio ghibli city sim
Игра очень атмосферна. Щас анимешные игры воспринимаются как гриндилки-гача,но тут и градострой,и стилистика идут на пользу процессу игры. Игра не так давно вышла в *полный доступ* так что контента не много, но уже анонсировали очень интересное дополнение, так что если разработчики не забросят игру - будет очень даже интересно проходить игру раз за разом.
Always wanted a city building management game with a bit of survival. This game fulfill it all! Its not just about building...you gotta do a lot of preparation for the next biome n different conditions that may affect the survivability of your village. Cozy music and nature ambience. Couldnt stop playing from the start. I love my onbu and my villagers.
10 Онбу из 10, до слез
我玩过的生存建造里很糟糕的一款了,各种体验都是中下等;地区特点实际上并没有做出足够的区分,而且切换的随机性导致游玩节奏会变得很拖沓;即使开了四倍速,资源采集生产的速度也相当微妙,几种板材是遏制科技发展的大头,但是工具的限制又使得无法针对资源快速爆产;引导也不完善,很多科技信息不全点出来之后无法生产;消耗趋势也没有,很多时候分不清到底材料消耗在哪了
I enjoyed this game, however it only gave me about 10 hours of enjoyment. Therefore, only buy this for less than 10 dollars.
