Evaluation
Raid on Taihoku is a narrative adventure game set in WWII-era Taiwan that launched on Steam on February 15, 2023. The developer, Mizoriot Creative Company, released a soundtrack and artbook alongside the game on February 16, 2023 — both of which are now available. Following launch, the team issued several bug-fix and polish patches through March and May 2023 to improve the experience based on player feedback. The most recent developer communication was a May 19, 2023 post marking the 78th anniversary of the real-world Taipei air raid, in which the team released a Korean localization and a music video for the game's theme song. No further posts, updates, or announcements have appeared since that date. There are no unreleased DLC entries on the store, no announced future content of any kind, and no indication the developer intends to add more content. The post-launch activity — bug fixes and a localization — is consistent with wrapping up support for a completed narrative game rather than an ongoing content rollout. The last developer communication was on May 19, 2023, and as of June 22, 2026, the game has been silent for over three years, well past any reasonable expectation of further updates for a small indie narrative title. The game appears to have shipped as a complete story experience and is now fully finished.

About This Game
This is a 2.5 D narrative adventure game. In the city of Taihoku under Japanese colonial rules, the players have to evade the raid of B-24 Liberator from American Air Force, and face the struggles of humanity through the characters’ eye.
In the safe zones, you can explore the game freely at your will, and follow hints to collect mysterious items hidden in the city; in danger zones, the emphasis is put on the life-or-death cooperation between characters, who have to escape from all kinds of dangers including air raid.
Background Story
Near the end of WWII, the USA Air Force chose to fight against Japan with island hopping, and the two countries thus had an air combat in the air of Taiwan Strait. On May, 31th, 1945, hundreds of American B-24 Liberators raided the capital of this island, Taipei. Many of the residents died in the raid, while more of them survived, facing the broken hometown.
The leading character, Sayako, got amnesia due to the raid. In addition to surviving in the city ruined by the fire, she also has to step on the journey of finding her memories back. The Taiwanese dog, blacky, is her most reliable partner. In the raided Taipei, the girl and the dog set on their adventure together.
The players have to experience the cruelty and toughness of the war, and in the meanwhile collect the broken memories and clues. Finally, Sayako’s past can be found, and the final truth can be embraced.
