Dokimon Quest is a monster-collecting RPG by solo developer Yano and Yanako RPGs. It is free on Steam for 48 hours until August 27, and a sequel, Dokimon Quest: II, is planned for a 2027 PC release.
Dokimon Quest is a monster-collecting RPG developed by solo developer Yano under the studio Yanako RPGs. The game is currently free on Steam for 48 hours, a giveaway that began at 2:00 AM Japan Time on August 25 and runs until 2:00 AM on August 27. The base game normally costs 1200 yen, and the DLC The Great Fairy Island is discounted 20% during the same window. The free distribution is framed as a direct way to gather player feedback for upcoming titles, specifically the sequel Dokimon Quest: II and another monster-collecting RPG, Yami Kids.
The sequel, announced on August 16, continues the story as the player time-travels 200 years to the Edo-period Zeros region to save a character named Maiko. It introduces new Dokimon, a partner mechanic, and a battle system rebuilt from scratch. The game is planned for a 2027 release on PC via Steam. The announcement also notes that the MonTamer Maker engine, used by the studio, receives UI improvements aimed at faster battles. Coverage of the giveaway and the sequel is consistent, though the earlier story describes Yami Kids as a direct next title, while the later announcement groups it alongside Dokimon Quest: II as a project seeking feedback.
