Arc System Works is renowned for its BlazBlue and Guilty Gear fighting games. But on the Japanese 3DS eShop, the company released something completely different: Korokesu.

Korokesu is an action-puzzle game with dice-rolling elements. Here’s everything we know about it:

– Push, pull, and spin the dice around
– Need to delete the dice by getting similar faces on the dice to touch each other
– Two modes: Trial and Puzzle
– Trial: get the highest possible score by deleting the surrounding dice in the span of 3 minutes
– Get a higher score by chaining them together for combos
– When you delete dice, it takes a short while for them to completely disappear
– If you can manage to get another dice to fit in before they disappear, it activates the chain effect
– This deletes more dice and increases your score
– Puzzle: stages and dice positions are already set and your goal is to delete them
– 50 different stages included in Puzzle mode
– Game has a high score board and achievements that can be acquired by meeting certain conditions in the game
– Unconventional story
– Takes place in a galaxy far away
– The people of the planet Saikorogashi (Saikoro is dice, Korogashi is roll in Japanese) spent their days happily rolling dice
– One day, they decided to hold a contest to see who the best dice roller on the planet is
– Prince decided to participate as well
– Prince’s expression makes it hard to know what he’s thinking about, but he seems to be more excited than usual regarding the upcoming tournament
– King shows intense feelings and secret supports the anxious prince
– 500 yen

One fan expressed some concern about limiting the game to the eShop. By releasing the title digitally, the thought was that its visibility and sales would be limited.

Svensson isn’t too concerned. He wrote on the Capcom-Unity boards in response:
