JapanSugoi

Shibuya based Japanese digital creative agency Makibishi 株式会社マキビシ has created an amazing online flash game that combines manga artwork and storytelling and exciting game play. The term makibishi refers to the small spiky objects ninjas used to deter pursuers in ancient Japan.

Originally created by Shinnosuke Kumazawa and his team to promote their website, their Makibishi Comic game is wild and wacky in a very creative way. You play the role of Assassin who is searching for five ninjas hidden across five different environments. Clicking on various characters or objects, you work out several puzzles and riddles that set in motion a sequence of events leading to their capture but (HINT) not necessarily in a logical way.
