Ganbare Goemon: Mononoke Dōchū Tobidase Nabe-Bugyō!

Ganbare Goemon: Mononoke Dōchū Tobidase Nabe-Bugyō! is an RPG entry in its series, set in a feudal Japan overrun by demons after an evil warlord seizes Edo castle. Players guide Goemon and his companions from an overhead perspective, exploring areas to gather items and complete quests that drive the narrative forward.

Combat departs from traditional party-based systems by featuring one-on-one duels, a design influenced by the popularity of monster-collecting games. Defeated creatures can be captured, trained, and enhanced through upgrades or mergers with others to gain new abilities. The title supports connectivity with the Nintendo 64 game Mononoke Sugoroku, allowing for the transfer of monsters between the two.
