- The main character of River City: Rival Showdown is Kunio, a character well known to fans of the series. This time the protagonist is embroiled in a mysterious affair. On the one hand, he is attacked by unknown perpetrators, and on the other - the girlfriend of Riki, Kunio's rival and best friend, disappears without a trace. These two events are connected, and the hero has only three days to unravel the mystery.
