Downtown Special: Kunio-kun's Historical Period Drama! Everyone Gather!

The game uses a side-scrolling beat 'em up structure where players move through stages, fight enemy groups, and face bosses. Attacks include standard strikes, jumps, and throws, with items and stage elements helping in combat. Progression is stage-based, and dialogue and branching outcomes can lead to different endings. Depending on the version, it can support simultaneous multiplayer, encouraging coordination and spacing during fights.

Kunio

The series protagonist appears in samurai form and serves as one of the main playable heroes.

Riki

Kunio's longtime rival and ally, returning here as a historical-period character with a strong melee role.

Series cameo cast

Several familiar Kunio-kun characters appear in historical roles across enemies, allies, and story scenes.

Learn enemy wind-ups and avoid staying in the middle of a crowd. Use throws and knockback to break formations before committing to longer attack strings. In boss fights, strike once or twice, then reposition to reduce counterattacks. If playing with others, coordinate aggro and damage so you do not all get clipped by the same move.
