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

Crunchyroll has just added a captivating new game to its Game Vault on Android, perfect for puzzle enthusiasts and anime lovers alike. Called Tengami, this unique title offers serene vibes, stunning visuals, and a touch of mystery, all wrapped up in a truly innovative format.

When a Visual Novel Meets Origami

Tengami is unlike anything you've played before. Its pop-up book-style gameplay is a genuine first, unfolding a world of ancient Japanese fairy tales through intricate origami-like mechanics. You'll actively interact with the environment, folding, sliding, and manipulating the landscape to solve puzzles and uncover hidden secrets.

Your adventure takes you through breathtaking environments: dark forests, tranquil waterfalls, and abandoned shrines, all centered around a mysterious, dying cherry tree—the heart of the game's narrative. Your quest is to discover the reason behind its decline.

Prepare to be mesmerized. Tengami beautifully brings a Japanese folktale to life with stunning visuals and an equally captivating musical score composed by David Wise (renowned for his work on Diddy Kong Racing).

Will You Get Tengami?

This atmospheric adventure game is meticulously crafted to mimic the feel of a real pop-up book. The level of detail is astonishing; you could realistically recreate everything you see in the game using paper, scissors, and glue.

Developed by Nyamyam and initially released in 2014, Tengami is now available on the Google Play Store via Crunchyroll. It's free for Crunchyroll Mega Fan and Ultimate Fan subscribers.
