'''Kairosoft''' is a Japanese video game developer that specializes in small simulation games. Despite looking like sprite-based {{Eastern RPG}}s, the games are usually very vast and complex, with many mechanics and strategies to discover as you delve in further. They made their English debut with ''Videogame/GameDevStory'' in 2010, which met a huge success from casual players, proper gamers and even game developers across the world. Since then, they've kept localizing their games over the iOS and Android platforms.

More information is available at [[TheWikiRule it's]] own [[http://kairosoft.wikia.com/wiki/Kairosoft_Wiki wiki.]]

* Videogame/GameDevStory

!!The company themselves are examples of:
* FollowTheLeader: Not surprisingly, Kairosoft has been subject to a number of developers attempting to follow their success. One particularly notable developer goes as far as to use the same naming convention.

!!Their works include examples of:
* ArabOilSheikh: King Ackbar.
* JustOneMoreTurn: A good number of reviews for their games start with some statement of how the review ended up late since the reviewer lost track of time.
* MaskedLuchador: Mr. X, one of the reoccurring characters, remains a mystery through all of his appearances.
* NewGamePlus: After each games Time Limit, it will save your score at that point and the game will technically end. From that point, you can continue the current game and keep going to see how good you can get, or you can start a new game and have certain unlockables available from the get-go.
* RunningGag: Certain out-of-place characters become recruitable/move to your town during all of Kairosoft's works.
* SequelFirst: Our Pocket Academy is the second School Sim game. The first wasn't localized.
* ThemeNaming: Until Pocket Academy, all the games localized titles were a variation of 'X Y Story'. Grand Prix brought it back, and it followed with World Cruise and Epic Astro.
** Oh! Edo ''Towns'' and successor Venture ''Towns''. Dungeon ''Village'' and Ninja ''Village'' too.
*{{Underground Monkey}}s: While the environment changes by the game, the same character sprites are reused often, sometimes with clothing appropriate for the game. For example, the first minion in most games is a pink-pigtailed girl, showing up as anything from a sushi chef to a ninja farmer.
