Story When Meina returns from her outing, she discovers that everyone in Slugnail Village has been possessed by Lolidium Slimes !? According to Obaba , the only one who wasn’t infected, restoring the villagers requires blue Pure Slimes as materials. To gather what she needs, Meina heads for the garden… Game Overview Watch out at the corners… You’ll want to retry again and again! Race through a garden maze as a Slugnail— escape from enemies while collecting slimes in this dot-eat–style NumeNume × tag-action game! The tag thrill: “There might be an enemy just beyond what you can see…” Garden Hunt is designed around the tension-and-release thrill you feel in real-life tag— that moment of “What’s around that corner…?” as you chase and get chased. Not only will you run through open areas with clear visibility, but also maze layouts where walls and hedges block your view, and even stages shrouded in thick fog where you can’t see ahead—each environment offers its own kind of suspense. Master NumeNume Dash & Numeri Trails! Players can move at high speed with a slippery dash move called NumeNume Dash , but it consumes moisture , so you can’t spam it. That’s where Numeri Trails come in—slippery trails left behind after you, slimes, and enemies pass by. While you’re on a Numeri Trail, your moisture recovers and you can dash again. Do you spend your resource to catch slimes, or save it to escape enemies? Knowing when to use your moisture is the key to clearing stages. Should you follow that trail? Enemy or slime—your fate at a crossroads Numeri Trails are not only a high-speed movement tool—they’re also footprints left by enemies and slimes. While racing through the maze, a single fresh trail may suddenly appear—was it left by a slime… or an enemy? Deciding whether to follow it creates tense moments that can determine the difference between survival and capture. This mind game—never knowing what’s one step ahead—makes the tag gameplay even deeper. A fully voiced story told through manga-style cutscenes! The story unfolds through manga-panel-style presentation with full voice acting . By leveraging what manga does best—expressive facial changes, dynamic camera angles, and character motion—we’ve packed the game with many scenes that highlight Meina’s charm.
