Yumeko’s Castle (Pelinese: 夢子の城, Yumeko no Shiro) is a series of Pelinese dungeon crawler role-playing video games developed by Seikokashi Software for the PC, Setako Fold2, and Fold3 platforms. Its first game was released as a launch title of the Fold2 handheld console in 2011 to positive reviews, and it has since added five more main series titles and a single spin-off. The series is credited with popularizing the dungeon crawler RPG genre in the Pelinese handheld market after modest commercial successes by spiritual predecessors like Super Dungeon Quest on the original Fold.

Development work on the original Yumeko’s Castle game commenced in 2009 after Seikokashi Software was granted early access to the software development kit for the then-in-development Fold2 console. The dungeon crawler format, then popular in Pelinai only on PC, was selected early in development due to the modest but promising successes of similar games developed for the original Fold by both Seikokashi and other developers; game director Akira Ribaki stated in an interview with Hoshikara in 2019 that the development team hoped to better harmonize the genre and portable console platform than predecessors did by making Yumeko’s Castle more friendly to the usage patterns of handheld systems, particularly by streamlining gameplay and allowing for faster start/stop cycles than preceding titles for PC and the Fold. Another major design goal was to maintain the feasibility of completing a single dungeon run in the game within a timeframe of three to eight minutes.

The Yumeko’s Castle games are moderately successful in Pelinai. Total sales of all titles in the series number at approximately 2.6 million copies, with all sales being in the Pelinese domestic market; like the vast majority of video games and other media produced in Pelinai, it is not exported to other regions.
