About Uncharted Waters

To commemorate Kou Shibusawa's 35th anniversary, the "Kou Shibusawa Archives" will be opened in the Steam Store. Here we will revive popular previously released titles.

In this fifth round of releases, we offer the 1990 release of "Uncharted Waters."
It is set in the 16th century, in a time when adventures roamed the 7 seas in search of new discoveries. Players command great ships, battling pirates, gathering information and getting rich through trade while seeking adventure throughout the known world.

I used to love this game way back when. Unfortunately, my Japanese is very bad which makes the game completely unplayable now.

Played this on the original Nintendo, back when the company was the savior of gaming. That first night i stayed up 16 hours straight exploring, trading, battling, and gambling. Some of my fondest gaming memories involve this game. When I saw it on Steam, I got excited. I have been yearning to play this game again for over 30 years. Though the Steam page warned me that this was in Japanese, I bought it anyways. There had to be some gamer somewhere in the world that translated this game or posted game play in English. Wrong. And it is unplayable without knowing Japanese. I do not speak or read Japanese. So, if you speak Japanese or know someone who does, grab this gem. As for me, I guess I have to yearn for my old love to learn English so that we can be reunited. Or I will need to learn Japanese.

Rather than pushing a rigid storyline, the game provides a loose narrative framework and then steps back, allowing players to chart their own course across a vast and largely open map. You take on the role of Leon Franco, a young noble with the goal of restoring his family’s status, but that objective quickly becomes just one of many possible motivations. The game’s strength lies in how it allows you to define what success means. You can become a merchant, building wealth through calculated trade routes, or a naval combatant who thrives on conflict and piracy. Alternatively, you can embrace the spirit of exploration, seeking out distant ports and uncovering new territories. These paths are not mutually exclusive, and the freedom to shift betwee…
