Players will explore towns, find new equipment, help out townsfolk who have quests for them to complete, meet new friends (like Yae), and deal with many, many puns along the way.

Fans have provided an English translation for the game on Romhacking.net, letting many players experience another one of Goemon’s silly adventures for the first time. This translation covers the majority of the game save for the credits.
