KAIZEN is an adventure RPG inspired by the world of Jujutsu Sorcerers, where you explore, uncover hidden secrets, master fighting styles, and fight your way up to the rank of Special Grade Sorcerer. This guide covers the controls, early progression, combat, exploration, and what to do when you get stuck.
In shortGetting comfortable with these keys early saves a lot of frustration later.
KAIZEN's controls are straightforward on PC, but a few of them only become available as you progress. Wall Climbing and Wall Running unlock at higher levels, so do not worry if Double Space does nothing yet. Console and mobile players should check the official server for their control layout.
FBlock to reduce incoming damage from enemy attacks
QDash to put distance between you and an enemy fast
CtrlSprint for regular movement around the map
TCompanion to call your companion into the fight
JMount to ride your mount
Double SpaceWall Climbing and Wall Running, unlocked at higher levels
In shortDefeating enemies and exploring the map are the two engines that drive all growth in KAIZEN.
Every session in KAIZEN comes down to two activities that feed each other: combat and exploration. Beating enemies raises your rank toward Special Grade Sorcerer, while thorough exploration is the only way to unlock your Innate Technique. Bringing friends along through the party system makes both activities easier, and completing missions on top of that stacks extra rewards.
Combat Defeat enemies to rank up toward Special Grade Sorcerer
Exploration Search the map to discover hidden secrets and unlock your Innate Technique
Fighting styles and weapons Experiment with different options to find what suits your playstyle
Missions Complete them alongside friends for additional rewards
Max level The level ceiling is 1200

Combat tips that actually change fights
Tips
In shortMixing Block and Dash together is the single biggest skill improvement you can make early on.
Blocking soaks damage when an enemy swings at you; dashing creates space when they close in too fast. Beyond those two, trying out multiple fighting styles and weapons helps you find a combination that clicks for you.
Tips worth knowing
Block with F the moment you see an enemy attack coming
Dash with Q when an enemy is right on top of you
Test several fighting styles and weapons before committing to one
Party with a friend when a fight feels unwinnable solo
06
Finding hidden secrets and unlocking your Innate Technique
Tips
In shortYour Innate Technique is locked behind exploration, so searching thoroughly is as important as levelling up.
Hidden secrets are scattered across the map. When you discover one, the game notifies you and whatever ability or technique it grants becomes available immediately. Once Wall Climbing unlocks via Double Space, a whole new layer of the map opens up.
Tips worth knowing
Explore to discover and unlock your Innate Technique
Once Double Space unlocks, use Wall Climbing to reach places that were previously inaccessible
When you find a secret, you will see an in-game notification confirming the unlock
07
What to do when you are stuck or losing
Check
In shortAlmost every wall in KAIZEN comes down to level, equipment, or needing a second player.
If a boss or strong enemy keeps defeating you, run through this list before giving up.
Switch to a different weapon or fighting style
Practice blocking and dashing together rather than just attacking
Invite a friend into your party before the next attempt
Clear other available missions first to raise your level and come back stronger
