A mountain village.
According to an ancient legend
It was said that the terrible disasters that often occurred in this area
was said to be the work of a monster.

The monsters tormented many people.
Prayers, priestesses, monks and others joined forces
After a long struggle, they were able to contain it.

But even now, when the sun goes down
However, even now, when the sun goes down, the monsters are said to struggle to get out and stir.

It was the last summer of my high school life.
I was called by an uncle in the countryside.
He wanted me to help him with his work.

On the way, I met a girl at a bus stop at the foot of the mountain.
Her name is Ayumi.
For some reason, I end up working with her.

It's been a few years since I've been to the countryside, but it's different from what I remember.
I wonder what this strange feeling is.

One after another, inexplicable events occur.
What on earth happened in this mountain pass?

### 5/5 — 意外と楽しい✨️

*2025-07-23, version 1.1.3*

単純なパズルで分かりやすい＋ホラー要素のあるストーリーがあるので思ってたよりは楽しい♪♪

ケド爆弾やらパズル合わせて作れるアイテムの作り方のチュートリアル終わったら説明見れないのが残念かも

### 5/5 — これ良い

*2025-06-09, version 1.1.3*

暇つぶしに遊べてとても良いです‼️さらに、ホラー好きなので、そこも良いです♪パズル✖️ホラーの組み合わせが最強ですごく楽しいです！女の子が喋るのもちょっと可愛い😍
毎日一回ご褒美？があって良いです♪
皆さんも試した方が絶対いいです！

### 2/5 — レベル2から進めない

*2025-03-11, version 1.1.3*

タイトルの通りです。
レベル1をやってみて、結構面白いアプリだなと思っていたのに、レベル2から進めなく 残念でした...。
アンインストールさせていただきますm(*_ _)m

### 1/5 — 進めない

*2024-12-07, version 1.1.3*

レベル2からどこにも行けない…さよなら

### 1/5 — Could be Fun

*2024-11-07*

Could be a fun horror game but I cannot play level 2. It’s just stuck. So until that gets fixed… 🤷🏼‍♀️

### 1/5 — バグ？

*2024-10-22, version 1.1.3*

なぜかレベル2から進めない。評判もあまり良くないようなのでアンインストールしま〜す。

### 4/5 — ゲーム自体は面白い

*2024-04-15, version 1.1.3*

ただ、、、 ブースターやアイテムが加算されないバグが発生してます 対応して下さい

### 2/5 — IDとパスワードは必ずメモに貼ってくださいマジで

*2022-05-09, version 1.1.1*

他の方のレビューにもあるとおり突然データが消えます。私もついさっき消えましたが最初にIDとパスワードをメモに貼っていたのでどうにか復旧できました。皆様もお気をつけて。
ゲーム自体は同ジャンル他作品と較べて大味だったりシナリオのテンポが緩慢だったりと荒削りな部分が目立ちますが、この独特かつ良い意味で不気味な雰囲気に何故か惹かれて繰り返し遊んでしまいます。
4つ5つ揃えたときの生成物が意図したものと違っていたり、広告ボタンを押しても反応が無いときがあったり、ステージによっては相当シビアな運ゲーを強いられたり等々、個々の欠点をひとつひとつ改善していけば良いゲームになれるポテンシャルはあると思います。
ここまで悪い点ばかり申しましたが今後の改善には期待しています。
あとこれ遊ぶ皆様はIDとパスワードは必ずメモに貼ってくださいマジで。

### 5/5 — 不具合で進めません　改善して頂きました！

*2021-12-15, version 1.1.1*

402面でダルマを落としているのに落ちた事にならない不具合があってクリア出来ません。何度やってもダメです。 運営に報告しようにもどこから報告すれば良いのやら…。せっかく楽しく遊んでいたのに残念です。

402面の不具合修正ありがとうございます！
対応が嬉しかったので☆5に変更です！
面白いゲームなので、これからも頑張って下さい。

### 1/5 — がっかり

*2021-10-20, version 1.1.0*

突然データが消えて引き継ぎしなければ再開できない。わざわざ初回のバックアップパスワードを保存してないので初めからだし課金も無駄になった。がっかり。
