TASUKEMONO

A new style "strategy-like" puzzle game!

"Tasukemono" is a turn-based puzzle game.
A blind girl lost in the forest is looking for her mother.
Control cute "humanized" animal characters and navigate a human girl to help finding her mother!
This game consists of short multiple stages. You can save and restart at any stage.
Simple and easy playing style. But you will encounter multiple obstacles and enemies and advancing deep into the forest is not a simple task!

How to play
Use the animals' "movement" and "skills" commands to guide the automatically moving girl to the goal. After setting the action of the animal, you can make everyone advances one step simultaneously by executing "advance time" command. You don't have to rush, think each animal's next action very carefully!
Your adventure begins with 2 friendly animals, "Irenu" (dog) and "Kuuma" (bear). As the stages progress, you will meet more unique characters. Become a friend with them, and help the girl together♪

Casual play style
Your progress is autosaved at the beginning of every stage, or you can also save manually during the puzzle mode. Want to retry the current stage? Of course you can do so anytime by selecting "Retry" in option menu!

Gallery
There's a gallery mode. By picking up a piece of paper hidden somewhere in the forest, you can unlock and see special graphics in the gallery mode.

Characters
There in the forest live cute animals and try to help the little human girl! Each has unique character and skills. Let's join the party and experience their adventure together! Be careful, though, not every animal loves human...

Notice
