As part of the 30th anniversary of the developer Kairosoft, which was founded in 2016, there are now four volumes of game bundles available for the Windows PC via Steam. Each one costs $7.20 and consists of four games from the company’s back catalog. They are estimated to be available for about a month, which means they should be around until July 2026. (As a joke, the description for each does note, “BUT, if the boss finds out and yells at us, this bundle will be terminated immediately!”)
Each bundle includes a number of Kairosoft simulation games, but they aren’t all from the same time period. For example, Kairosoft 30th Anniversary Vol.1 features Game Dev Story, which first came out in English on mobile devices in 2010, alongside later titles like 2016’s The Manga Works, 2024’s Heian City Story, and 2026’s Demon Castle Story.

Kairosoft has another big game coming up in 2026. It’s working with Bandai Namco on One Piece: Grand Gourmet. That will be a restaurant management simulation that involves us assisting Sanji with running a branch of Baratie. It follows the company’s other anime series spin-off game Doraemon Dorayaki Shop Story.
