Indie developers, Nyamyam, have been working on their minimalist, art-centric title Tengami for some time now. They were recently nominated for an Indiecade award, and the staff over at Nyamyam is made up of ex-Rare developers.

The game, which will be released on ipad next year, is an adventure-puzzler that leans heavily on its stylized design to convey the narrative. Borrowing from Japanese fairy-tales as source materials,  Tengami  has the feel of a playable children's book.

Watch the trailer, and you'll see what we mean.
