Crunchyroll Adds Tengami, a Puzzle Game with Japanese Tales that Mimics a Pop-Up Book

Crunchyroll has enriched its Game Vault on Android with an intriguing addition that will captivate fans of puzzles and anime. The game, named Tengami, offers a unique experience reminiscent of a pop-up book, blending serene vibes with stunning visuals and a touch of mystery.

When a Visual Novel Meets Origami

Tengami stands out with its innovative pop-up book-style gameplay, a first in the gaming world. As you delve into ancient Japanese fairy tales, the environment unfolds like origami. Players can fold, slide, and manipulate the surroundings to reveal secrets and solve puzzles, creating an immersive experience.

The journey in Tengami takes you through diverse settings—from dark forests and serene waterfalls to abandoned shrines—all of which enhance the game's mysterious cherry tree, central to the plot. The tree is dying, and your mission is to uncover the reason behind its decline.

Stepping into Tengami feels like entering a living Japanese folktale, with visuals that mesmerize. The game's enchanting music, composed by David Wise, known for his work on Diddy Kong Racing, adds to the captivating atmosphere.

Will You Get Tengami?

Tengami offers an atmospheric adventure where the entire game world is crafted to resemble real-life pop-up books. The meticulous attention to detail allows players to recreate every element of Tengami using paper, scissors, and glue, adding to its authenticity.

Developed by Nyamyam and originally released in 2014, Tengami is now available on the Google Play Store through Crunchyroll. It's free for those with Crunchyroll Mega Fan or Ultimate Fan memberships, making it an accessible choice for subscribers.
