with Mountain Smiling vs Hikkoshi Warrior

"with Mountain Smiling" is an adventure game set in the Antarctic interior, created by veterans of the Japan Antarctic Research Expedition. There's an anecdote about Ernest Shackleton, an explorer from the early 20th century, who reportedly advertised for crew members in a newspaper during an Antarctic expedition with lines like these: 　　　MEN WANTED for Hazardous Journey. 　　　Small wages, bitter cold, long months of complete darkness, constant danger, 　　　safe return doubtful. 　　　Honor and recognition in case of success. In this game, set within a limited one-year timeframe, the story revolves around a trip from the Showa Station on East Ongul Island near the Antarctic continent to the Dome Fuji Station inland. The distance is roughly 1,000km. While this might seem like a manageable distance on paved roads, the speed of snowcat is at most 8km/h, and limited fuel, food supplies, rugged terrain, and adverse weather conditions obstruct progress. Even if the inland trip fails, there's no need to despair. One can easily return from the snowcat to the station using the Return-to-Base (RtB) Pod. By failing or gaining experience, new stories can be acquired, which can then be utilized during subsequent trips. Gather stories through repeated failures and reach the lost Dome Fuji Station. Now, it's time for the departure of new expedition members. No lose, No win.

A slightly unusual life simulation that begins with apartment hunting. You are 18 years old and ready to live on your own. Will your first home be a comfortable apartment—or a tiny place packed with strange problems? Choose a home, arrange your furniture, develop your Strength, Knowledge, and Charm, and make your way through work, romance, marriage, and family life. Your story continues all the way to age 65. YOUR HOME SHAPES YOUR LIFE Every property is different. Compare rent, size, age, floor plan, facilities, and unexpected flaws before deciding where to live. Move from cramped studio apartments to sprawling 10-room mansions as your income and family change. You can even explore your next home in 3D before moving in. FURNISH YOUR HOME. BUILD YOURSELF. Place beds, desks, bookshelves, appliances, training equipment, decorations, and more on the actual floor plan. The furniture you use affects your abilities and stress over time. Certain combinations and layouts can also unlock special skills, making the way you arrange your home an important part of your life. FIGHT FOR YOUR CAREER At age 22, resumes and job interviews turn into full-blown battles. Use your Strength, Knowledge, and Charm to overcome the competition and win the career you want. Promotions, career changes, company closures, and fresh starts can send your working life in unexpected directions. LOVE, MARRIAGE, AND FAMILY Meet a variety of characters as the years pass. Go on dates, confess your feelings, get married, and experience everyday life with your partner and family. You can build a life together—or choose to remain single. The story is yours to decide. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED Apartment problems, broken furniture, career setbacks, pets, strange encounters, and even the occasional God of Poverty can disrupt your plans. Adapt to whatever life throws at you and turn every setback into part of your story. LOOK BACK AT AGE 65 At the end of your journey, look back at the homes you lived in, the career you built, the abilities you developed, the relationships you formed, and the achievements you earned. Every completed life is saved to your archive, ready to be remembered before you begin a completely different one. Where will you live? Who will you meet? What kind of life will you build? There is no single correct answer. Live it your way, again and again.
