Ponpoko — About this game
Ponpoko sends a hungry tanuki around a single screen of platforms and ladders to gather every piece of food. Gaps and discarded apple cores require jumps, while caterpillars move along the routes and can cross openings that the player must respect. Mystery pots can contain a bonus or release a deadly snake, adding another risk to the collection route. Finishing quickly matters because the hunger reserve can run out before the last item is reached.
