Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Japanese browser studio for creating, playing, printing, and sharing small mystery games without an account.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-15 issue.

Field notes

The studio organizes a puzzle as a sequence of steps with staged hints, alternate answers, optional media, timers, and PIN-protected fullscreen play. It also bridges digital and physical play: creators can export a one-file HTML version for an offline setting or print clues in A4 landscape, postcard, and business-card formats. A host sheet collects answers, hints, and hiding-place notes, while JSON backup is offered for moving projects between devices.
