Irasshaimase! Run, jump, and slide your way through a sushi restaurant, dodging obstacles like savory sheets of nori, piles of rice, and the rapid sushi trains. Collect power-ups that help you along the way; shoyu for extra points and wasabi for a shield from obstacles. The goal is to survive as long as you can, but it gets harder the longer and farther you go, as obstacles progressively come more frequently and quickly! \(0_0)/ Ganbatte!
