Hello everyone. When it comes to 'Sylvanian Families'...... it’s a series that boasts overwhelming popularity as a dollhouse toy, isn't it? I think it's not an exaggeration to say that almost every Japanese person knows about it. I'm Boss from Retro Video Game Republic.


That's right! 'Sylvanian Families' is a pretty famous series in Japan, isn't it? ......Huh? But it has nothing to do with games, does it? I'm Saori from Retro Video Game Republic!

However! The game company we are introducing this time is related to 'Sylvanian Families'...... or rather, it’s the company that releases 'Sylvanian Families'!

About EPOCH?

https://retro-video-game-republic.com/product/tag_page.html?tags=213&ref=blog
EPOCH is a well-known company in Japan, renowned as a long-established toy manufacturer.
Founded in 1958. The company recorded an unprecedented hit with the ‘Baseball Board’ toy series, released shortly after its establishment, and gained even more popularity with the release of the dollhouse toy ‘Sylvanian Families’ in 1985.

Thus, while EPOCH is strongly associated with toys among Japanese people, it is actually a versatile company that has also developed and released video game software. Although it once ventured into video game console development and video game software development, it is currently focusing on toy development.

Ah! So EPOCH is the company that released 'Baseball Board'!

'Baseball Board' is a toy so famous that even I know it, which really speaks to EPOCH’s fame as a toy manufacturer! It seems like they have withdrawn from the game business now, but it looks like they released some masterpieces in the past!
