"Mr. Kokkuri, Mr. Kokkuri, please come." When you were a child, maybe in the classroom after school, and some friend says anxiously, "Ive heard that Mr. Kokkuri can tell you dreams of the future that come true." Such spine-tingling nostalgic play has come back!

One to four people can play the fortune-telling game at a time. Each player touches a finger on the circle touch pads in the corners of the board. Simply touch or tap your pad to contribute your energy and influence to the divining coin and Mr. Kokkuri will tell you the answer to a question. The coin is borrowed money and you must return it to the central gate after you have received your answer. After you appreciate your answer, be sure to say thank you to Mr. Kokkuri. If you want to ask another question then simply shake the device, and please ask Mr. Kokkuri to come again.

This app is a beautiful animated board game of Kokkuri-san, a Japanese game that gained popularity during the Meiji period and is also considered by some as a form of divination, based partially on Western table-turning (like the Ouija board game). The name kokkuri is an onomatopoeia meaning "to nod up and down", and refers to the movement of the actual kokkuri mechanism. The kanji are used to write words as a phonetic equivalent. The games characters reflect the popular belief that the movement of the mechanism is caused by supernatural agents (ko, foxes; gu, mythical creatures; ri, raccoons).
