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 game that will enthrall gamers who adore puzzles and anime. Named Tengami, this game offers serene vibes, stunning visuals, and a touch of mystery, all wrapped in an innovative pop-up book-like experience.

When a Visual Novel Meets Origami

Tengami stands out with its unique pop-up book-style gameplay, a pioneering approach by its developers. As you delve into ancient Japanese fairy tales, the game world unfolds like origami, allowing you to fold, slide, and manipulate the environment to uncover secrets and solve intriguing puzzles.

Your adventure takes you through diverse landscapes—from dark forests and serene waterfalls to abandoned shrines. These settings beautifully complement the game's central element: a mysterious dying cherry tree. Your journey revolves around discovering the cause behind its decline.

Stepping into Tengami feels like entering a living Japanese folktale, enhanced by mesmerizing visuals. The game's music, composed by David Wise, renowned for Diddy Kong Racing, adds another layer of enchantment to the experience.

Will You Get Tengami?

As an atmospheric adventure, Tengami's world is meticulously designed to mimic real-life pop-up books. With paper, scissors, and glue, you could recreate everything you see in the game, a testament to its authentic and detailed craftsmanship.

Developed by Nyamyam and initially 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 fans.
