J-Town: A Visual Novel

A corporate contractor has tasked you with infiltrating the quiet neighborhood of J-Town and finding a weakness for him to move in and open up a new store. However, as you meet the locals, they challenge you to see this community for what it really is. J-Town: A Visual Novel offers an easily accessible avenue to learn more about the ins and outs of Japanese American culture. With hand-drawn art inspired by the the real world counterparts in San Francisco, San Jose, and Los Angeles, explore our J-Town in this small slice-of-life narrative adventure. Talk to the community about real world issues like gentrification, cultural appropriation, and spatial preservation. And equally as important as the problems we face, come celebrate with us as we talk about cultural identity, our history, and more!
