Sushi Ben is a slice of life anime sim where you play as a customer to a sushi bar that's going out of business and it's up to you to save it! Loosely based on the life of the creator's friend, who he used to work with at a sushi bar.

The game is all about making friends with the town's inhabitants in order to experience various narrative encounters. These events are based on the player's interactions with the diverse cast of NPCs or just being at the right place at the right time.
