Beautiful Pop-Up Adventure Tengami Coming February 20
Developer Nyamyam is making good on its promise of an early 2014 release for its mobile adventure title Tengami. The game is heavily inspired by Japanese paper art and pop-up books, as we detailed in our preview from PAX last August.
Nyamyam tweeted that the game will be coming first to iOS for $4.99 as a universal app on February 20. Wii U, PC, and Mac installments will come later this year, likely in the summer.
You can check out a gameplay trailer demonstrating how touch interface will be used in the game. You can also read our PAX preview for more information.

Our Take
Tim’s description of the puzzles in Tengami, and more importantly, how they are woven into the pop-up book/papercraft motif, has me very interested. My favorite iOS games are The Room and The Room 2. If Nyamyam has constructed puzzles half as engaging, I’ll be thrilled to have this on my iPad.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
