Sumiban

Paint a Forgotten World Back to Life Sumiban is a Shinto-inspired puzzle adventure that combines Sokoban-style challenges with the magic of painting. Play as Mizuki, a young wandering artist drawn into a labyrinth of ancient divine ruins. These temples were once sacred places of color and creation. Now they stand silent, fractured, and overgrown, abandoned by gods whose names have faded from memory. To uncover a path through the ruins, Mizuki must solve intricate room-by-room puzzles. Discover enchanted brushes and paint directly into the world to reveal hidden passages, awaken dormant mechanisms, and permanently transform the spaces around you. Every brushstroke matters. Painting Is Your Magic Painting is more than decoration. It is a tool that can reshape the environment, activate ancient machinery, and open paths that did not exist before. Experiment with different brushes, study each room carefully, and consider the consequences of every move. A single stroke might reveal the solution, or leave you searching for another way forward. Explore the Divine Ruins Journey through a dense, interconnected dungeon filled with sealed chambers, hidden shortcuts, forgotten statues, and strange spirits. The story of the ruins is not simply told to you. It is hidden in their architecture, imagery, and abandoned sacred spaces. Observe your surroundings, take notes, and piece together the tragedy that caused the gods to disappear. What happened to the beings who built this place? Why did they leave it behind? And what will awaken when color returns?
