  • Summary: Embark on a spiritual journey through a world where ink, boxes, and precision come together.

    In a land inspired by traditional Japanese sumi-e art, you play as a small Kyubi who loves cardboard boxes. Use your spiritual powers to create boxes and reshape the environment to your advantage:    Embark on a spiritual journey through a world where ink, boxes, and precision come together.

    In a land inspired by traditional Japanese sumi-e art, you play as a small Kyubi who loves cardboard boxes. Use your spiritual powers to create boxes and reshape the environment to your advantage: build platforms, reach impossible places, and find the path to the portals connecting each challenge.

    But there’s a catch: the fewer boxes you use, the greater your mastery.

    Blending precision platforming with clever puzzles, the game features over 30 levels, each offering multiple ways to solve them. Carefully plan your moves while facing deadly spikes, deep chasms, and powerful winds that can completely change your strategy.

    With an art direction that combines pixel art and sumi-e brush strokes, every stage feels like a living painting in motion.

    Kitsune Kaeru can be consigned to a box marked ‘novelty’. It’s not a bad platformer, and its gimmick freshens things up nicely, but too many of its levels feel like a chore.
