The player selects commands from a menu in order to talk to NPCs and solve puzzles which will eventually allow them to progress.
As with many of these Famicom text adventures there is a linear critical path that the player must follow in order to move to new areas and reach the next point of the story.
Nankin refers to a semi-obscure manga artist of the same name who was behind much of the art design of the game.
Though the game doesn't include any of his pre-existing licenses, his distinctive art style is present throughout.
This approach might be equated to Akira Toriyama's artistic involvement with the Dragon Quest and Chrono games.
About Famicom Disk System
Japan-only, the Famicom Disk System (1986) was Nintendo's floppy-disk-based add-on for the Famicom, hosting several games (including the original Legend of Zelda and Metroid) before they were later ported to cartridge internationally. Because it never released outside Japan and its proprietary floppy disks degrade over time, complete, working Famicom Disk System software is a specialized import-collecting niche.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Nankin no Adventure, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Famicom Disk System titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
