If a human does spot you, run away at full speed before being caught. If you get caught, it's game over. While you can't directly resist humans, you can use items you find to create poltergeist phenomena to knock them out or guide them.Lovable CharactersAlong the way, you'll receive assistance from objects inhabited by Tsukumogami.

Over time, they became recognized as something scary, and nowadays, they are commonly treated as frightening motifs. As a return to their roots, we thought there should be at least one game highlighting the cuteness of Ichimatsu dolls, which led to the development of this game. The game is sprinkled with the charm of not only Ichimatsu dolls but also the good old Japanese customs and culture that are being forgotten. Please enjoy this slightly scary, sometimes bittersweet, and heartwarming adventure.
