Umihara Kawase

Please Note: This title, Umihara Kawase, is part of the Umihara Kawase Trilogy and is based on the original SNES game. The description below applies to the entire trilogy. The Umihara Kawase Trilogy compiles three physics-based puzzle-platformer titles with over 20 years of legacy. Created by original developers Kiyoshi Sakai and Toshinobu Kondo, this cult classic achieved indie fame in Japan. You control Umihara Kawase, a backpacking sushi chef armed with an elastic fishing line and hook. Traverse environments filled with fish-like enemies, conveyor belts, spikes, water pits, and time travel. Your goal is to collect items and reach the exit. As you delve deeper into this dream world, puzzles get tougher and time pressure mounts. Seek out shortcuts and secret exits to open bonus stages. The fishing line's elasticity distinguishes the trilogy, allowing for unique mobility and discovery. Success depends on managing the line's tension and slack, enabling you to stretch down or launch upwards.
