Crunchyroll Introduces Tengami: A Pop-Up Book Inspired Puzzle Game with Japanese Tales

Crunchyroll has recently enriched its Game Vault on Android with a captivating addition that's sure to delight fans of puzzles and anime. Introducing Tengami, a serene and visually stunning game that feels like stepping into a pop-up book. With its unique blend of mystery and ancient Japanese fairy tales, Tengami offers a truly immersive experience.

When a Visual Novel Meets Origami

Tengami stands out with its innovative pop-up book-style gameplay, a pioneering approach as highlighted by its developers. As you journey through this enchanting world, you'll manipulate the environment by folding, sliding, and interacting with the scenery to unravel secrets and solve intricate puzzles. The game takes you on a mesmerizing adventure through dark forests, tranquil waterfalls, and forgotten shrines, all revolving around a mysterious dying cherry tree. Your mission is to uncover the reasons behind its decline.

The game's aesthetic is reminiscent of stepping into a living Japanese folktale, enhanced by breathtaking visuals. The soothing soundtrack, composed by the renowned David Wise of Diddy Kong Racing fame, adds another layer of immersion to this atmospheric journey.

Curious to see Tengami in action? Check out the official mobile launch trailer below:

Will You Get Tengami?

Tengami offers an atmospheric adventure where the entire game world is meticulously crafted to emulate real-life pop-up books. The attention to detail is such that you could recreate everything you see in the game using just paper, scissors, and glue, adding to its authenticity and charm.

Developed by Nyamyam and originally released in 2014, Tengami is now available for free on the Google Play Store through Crunchyroll's Game Vault. This offer is exclusive to those with Crunchyroll Mega Fan or Ultimate Fan memberships.
