Square Enix Opens Yamanote Line Romancing SaGa 2 Puzzle Tour

Square Enix released a real puzzle-solving tour game tied to Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven on October 16. Priced at 3,300 yen, it sends players around Yamanote Line stations as the Emperor, facing Seven Heroes from Shinjuku to Shinagawa. A special site opened with the free puzzle The Mystery of the Beginning, plus an early purchase sticker bonus and an X campaign.

The tour opens at Shinjuku Station, where players face Kzinssie, then move freely along the Yamanote Line inner or outer loop. Each stop assigns a different Seven Hero: Bokhohn at Shin-Okubo, Rocbouquet at Ikebukuro, Noel at Ueno, Subier at Ebisu, Dantarg at Gotanda and Wagnas at Shinagawa. A cat character, designed by Mikine Hozato, guides the route, and clearing puzzles yields digital cat goshuin stamps.

  • Shinjuku: Kzinssie
  • Shin-Okubo: Bokhohn
  • Ikebukuro: Rocbouquet
  • Ueno: Noel
  • Ebisu: Subier
  • Gotanda: Dantarg
  • Shinagawa: Wagnas
