About
In a world where mysterious plants are spreading all over the earth, emitting toxic spores as they grow, a small group of survivors seeks shelter on the back of a giant, wandering creature they call 'Onbu'.
Become their leader, build their settlement and form a symbiotic relationship with Onbu to survive together in this hostile, yet beautiful post-apocalyptic world.
A functioning village is the basis of your survival. Build your settlement and expand it over Onbu’s back. Plan production chains and optimise them to utilise the limited space as efficiently as possible. Create a society that can overcome any challenge.
Living on the back of another organism comes with its own set of challenges. Will you live in symbiosis, bond with Onbu and survive on mutual trust? Or will you become a parasite, only aiming to ensure a better life for your villagers? The choice is yours.
Continuously adapt your village as you travel through a multitude of different biomes, each with its unique climate zones, opportunities and threats. Scout your environments and send out foraging missions to gather rare resources and ancient artefacts.
Remnants of the old world hold knowledge that has long been forgotten, but can be unearthed by your villagers. Find and research these technologies, but use them wisely, as progress can be a double-edged sword.
Ensure the survival of both your villagers and your Onbu, even though poisonous spores, merciless weather, bloodsucking parasites and many more challenges mean that the odds are often stacked against you.

Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; Xbox, Nintendo publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.
Updates
Build ids and update times come straight from Steam's PICS — the same source SteamDB reads. Patch history grows as we record new builds.

Reviews
This game has almost nothing innovative. All the mechanics are well known from other games, and it feels that the playthrough is very plain and predictable.
I freakin love this game. Too addicting.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Fun and cozy city builder, feels like it's a little lacking in some options and very auto-pilot-y, but still a good time
This game gives me the same nostalgic hit of childhood scents. I love this game. :D
Une centaine d'heures via le Game Pass à l'époque de la bêta sont à ajouter à mes 13h Steam. Le jeu offre une expérience unique, non seulement car la gestion de ville passe par la gestion toute ou partielle de votre Onbu et à quel point vous arrivez à tisser un lien symbiotique, mais aussi parce que l'on ressent un attachement personnel. Quand on blesse la créature, ou quand elle meure, c'est uniquement notre faute. Si notre partie de 250 ou 400 jours vient à prendre fin, c'est parce que nous avons mal fait quelque chose. Et le jeu est très punitif, un état de ville trop faible trop longtemps baisse rapidement la population, et qui dit moins de population, dit moins de ressources, et donc moins de manières de s'en sortir. L'équilibre est parfait, il s'agit sûrement de mon jeu de gestion préféré. Je n'ai pas non plus assez parlé des visuels du jeu, qui contribuent à l'atmosphère unique, tout qui est dessiné à la main puis implémenté rajoute un quelque chose de spécial, on pourrait presque se croire dans un film Ghibli parfois :') Les petits plus sont le lien avec Twitch (si vous streamez, le chat peut décider certaines actions pour ou contre vous), et les villageois peuvent également prendre le nom des spectateurs. La personnalisation du Onbu, bien que limité par des skins via un pack payant, reste satisfaisante dans le jeu de base, qui possède me semble-t-il minimum 3 skins gratuits différents. Hâte de voir la suite sortir avec le DLC "Last Leviathan", qui pour moi vaudra le coup !
Onbu is love, Onbu is life
runs very smoothly, very chill if youre not doing the challenge mode <3 love it
This is a beautifully illustrated indie game well worth the play for folks who enjoy more casual city builders with a good accompanying story. On normal difficulty, there wasn't too much challenge in keeping my village together and I will need to see how hard scales for difficulty. Because this is an indie game, there are small QoL issues (such as not being able to zoom out as much in the village view as I wanted to) to be expected but none diminished my enjoyment of the game.
