The Story of Kamikuishiki Village (上九一色村物語, Kamikuishiki-mura Monogatari) is a satirical Japanese doujin resource management strategy game developed by HappySoft and published by Aum Soft[2] that was released for PC-98 on June 29, 1995.

[3] Kamikuishiki Village's inputs include training Asahara's 'abilities', missionary work, investing, soliciting money from followers, and resting.

[1] Vice contacted Sarah Hightower, an independent researcher who studies domestic terror movements, and an expert on the Aum Shinrikyo cult.

[1] Hightower expresses that The Story of Kamikuishiki Village is not propaganda from Aum Shinrikyo, but satire that mocks the cult, furthermore stating that "Basically everything you see on YouTube about ‘this game will brainwash you’ is bullshit ...

"[1][2] Notable members of the Aum Shinrikyo cult are vulgarly mocked in Kamikuishiki Village's advertisement, such as its describing to the player's role in the game as Shoko Asahara as "[selling] off your own saliva, blood, cum and such to stupid believers".

[1] In response to an inquiry by Vice, Yoshihisa 'Kowloon' Kurosawa, stated that he didn't work on the game, but that it "was made by two of my friends while we were still in high school," and due to Aum's increasing political relevance and the cult running political candidates in elections, "The experience shook us, so those two ended up creating [The Story of Kamikuishiki Village] and I also made a game about Aum on my own.”[1] Kamikuishiki Village was created by Takeshi Kanai and Kouichi Karasawa; Kurosawa described the two as 'talented programmers', and stated that "I think they used a lot of new and innovative techniques to create it"; Kouichi Karasawa later worked for Konami.

[2] Kamikuishiki Village uses footage from the anime Chouetsu Sekai, and the game's soundtrack consists of music sung by Shoko Asahara.
