The game is set in a fantasy version of Japan in the Edo period (beginning of the 17th century) and uses a heavily modified variant of the systems used in Sanguine Productions' other role-playing games Ironclaw, Jadeclaw, and Albedo: Platinum Catalyst.[2]

In late October 2006, a version of the 2005 game translated into Spanish was released.[3] A "second" edition under Sanguine Productions was successfully Kickstarted in 2019.[4]
