Tengami Examine App

A nice distraction

I really liked the game and soundtrack, a great relaxing escape. It was a tad bit short (you could probably play through in 1-2 hours) but I feel it is worth the money. If I could change anything about the game it would be to auto-hide the settings icon on the top left to make for a more seamless experience.

My kids and I played Tengami together and loved it

I was looking for a game to play together with my kids (8 and 6), and they loved Tengami. The younger child was able to handle the point and click navigation, while the older one manipulated the puzzles and clues. They liked the music, and particularly loved how beautiful the game looked. We finished the game in two afternoons, but they immediately wanted to start playing it over again from the beginning. Short, but engaging and beautiful, and at US $4 well worth it.

Visually interesting

Firstly: I hate timed games so this one is ok in that regard. I like to solve puzzles that have a purpose, so this game does that. What it doesn’t do is offer more than one way to get to a goal. That part is kinda boring after one run-through.. Which brings me to my big complaint: I got to the house with the statues and am stuck. It apperas that I have completed the necessary task but then nothing happens, I can’t go anywhere from there. I can’t continue the game at all. Very annoying. I am hoping there will be an update so I can finish the game.

Most fascinating and meditative

Those that reviewed this as "not complex enough” must be highly experienced game players. For me, if I had not had at least one other intricate game experience, I would not have been able to guess at or intuit several moves—even with the hints activated! Towards the end, some of the hidden symbols were well hidden indeed and I would have never found them if I had not, at last, gone to YouTube for help. But I give this 5 stars because overall this is most peaceful and mediatative to play, and it certainly is a good brain exercise for me at age 72. It is very beautiful visually and very clever in its design. Others may complain, but I am astounded at the technical mastery that can create something of this intricacy—and all with code and pixels! A marvel to me. Yes, I do think our little paper man, whom I named Yoshi, took a bit long to get anywhere, but the movement through the paper landscape was pleasant to watch. He never rests! Except when he gets to sit in the boat. I, too, longed for more and wanted a few other levels or an entirely new journey for Yoshi to undertake. But “leave them wanting and they’ll come back for more,” works in theatre so why not here…? I will explore Nyamyam Games to see what else they have to offer. Peter in Albuquerque

Beautiful but

But it takes toooooo looooong for the character to move from one space to another. The excessive wait time is exhausting, especially when you know what needs to be done but it takes five minutes to get there and five seconds to complete the task.

Beautiful but too short...

The game is beautiful, original and well implemented with very nice background music. Sadly it only has three levels, which is too short imho, and ‘hurts’ replayabilty. Expert puzzle breakers will complete it less than an hour I guess. Hopefully the dev’s will offer an extension.

Beautiful…….but

Like everyone else I think this game is beautiful to look at. It would make an awesome slowly evolving screen saver…but. The distance between tasks is so great and the character moves soooooo slow that it just becomes a chore to explore. If there was some way to get the little guy to move faster. A key to toggle a run, or just a light trot would do wonders for game play. You get 3 stars for being pretty.

Needs more levels

Truly beautiful and mostly relaxing. Three levels are not enough.

: (

I am actually bored playing this…The pop-up origami stuff is visually interesting but doesn’t play enough of a role in the puzzles to make me care

What in the world?!

I would very much like to play the game but the game is malfunciting can't even open it up. So please work on that ASAP!

Nice start, put more into it

The art is beautiful, the puzzles are fun (but not very deep), and the story has plenty of potential. I’d love to see this game become worth of its premise.

not recommended

First of all the game can be completed in an hour or two because there are only 4 levels or so. Secondly the puzzles are terrible. There’s no logic behind them for the most part and they’re not very complex. Many of the solutions are along the lines of “guess the random pattern.” I wish I had spent my money on something else.

Stunning, but kinda boring

The game has good qualities, such as a fairly unique gameplay style, beautiful backdrop, and a decent soundtrack. However, there is not much complexity to the game and you can easily finish it in under 2 hours. The puzzles arent all that challenging. In conclusion, aesthetically stunning but uninteresting. Probably not worth the amount the developers are asking.

Tengami

Beautiful, creative graphics. BUT as a game there are not enough hints-instructions to prevent frustration at being totally blocked at the first level? ALL wolves must howl??? All right, but HOW? One hour and $7 wasted.

Tengami

This is the most unique game I have ever played. Incredible graphics….lovely music…challenging multi leveled puzzles…WOW! I love it and I have not even finished it yet!
