Kumiki: Japanese Wood Puzzle

Every wooden piece slides out in one direction. If the path ahead is clear, it glides free. Remove them all, and the karakuri box opens.

Kumiki is a Japanese-style puzzle game where you tap wooden pieces in the right order to pull them out of a joined wooden box. The arrow mark on each piece shows the direction it slides. If nothing blocks its path, out it comes. Which piece do you pull first? That is the whole game - quiet, simple, and surprisingly deep.

NO PENALTIES, EVER Tap a blocked piece and it simply knocks with a gentle thud. No lives, no timers, no fail screens. Rethink the order and try again, at your own pace.

EVERY PUZZLE IS SOLVABLE - GUARANTEED All 120 boxes in the game are machine-verified. There is not a single unsolvable puzzle, and no recycled layouts.

A NEW BOX EVERY DAY The Daily Box brings you one fresh puzzle each day. Perfect for a short break with a cup of tea.

OPEN BOXES, COLLECT PATTERNS Each box you unravel rewards you with a traditional Japanese pattern - checkerboard ichimatsu, hemp-leaf asanoha, ocean-wave seigaiha, and more. Fill your pattern book one page at a time.
