The Manga Works

The Manga Works is a simulation game for Android devices in which players start out as fledgling manga artists working from a modest studio. Players must gather story material, seek inspiration, and develop creative manga concepts. By creating manga, they gain experience and improve their skills. Success attracts young readers and generates revenue, which can be reinvested to expand income streams, upgrade the studio, and hire additional artists and assistants. Players can even go on to win prestigious awards.

Story

Start out as a fledgling manga artist in a small and empty room... Armed with only a single pen, draw the best manga you can and march proudly to the publishers to show off your work.

Ideas are the lifeblood of a manga artist. Go out in search of inspiration and gather plot points, then stuff your manga full of creativity.

Accumulate experience points and use them to train up your drawing, storytelling, and other skills.

When you think you've created a great one-shot, take it to a publisher! If you manage to make the "editor from hell" smile, it might just be the start of a fruitful relationship.

Produce the best manga the world has ever seen, and write your name down in history!

User comments

This one is difficult to rate as for some people it might be really boring. This game needs a lot of imagination from you and is very repetitive. To me this is extremely immersive game with probably the slowest pace from all Kairosoft games. I love the idea of a grind from the bottom. I love as well to imagine the stories I am making. This is a game which you love and will be your top 3 of Kairosoft or one of the worst. If you can afford - get it and try it out. If not - just go for Anime one.

this game, even by kairosoft standards, is a bit grindy and repetitive. to that end, it emulates the actual mangaka experience perfectly! i love manga. i have always loved manga. often i have wanted to become a mangaka myself. this game scratches that itch very well. there's some small issues i have (chapter limits on series, minor UI issues, etc) but i can easily forgive them for the game they're in. a perfect combination of idle and involved gameplay. lots of numbers, but easy to digest.

probably one of the harder titles by Kairosoft, but it's definitely worth the try. I started playing Kairo games about a year ago, and I literally have them all on my phone. I also buy all the new releases on day one. Kairosoft games are my favorite, and I thank them for their games. give them a try, you won't be disappointed!
