Overview

Inbento is a food-themed puzzle game where you solve puzzles to prepare lunch boxes. As you complete each "bento" lunch box a story unfolds about the highs and lows of parenthood. There are over 100 fun puzzles, aesthetically served with traditional boiled rice. Immerse yourself in a silent tale about a cute family of felines and enjoy the tranquil soundtrack.

It starts quite easily but steadily increases in complexity. Each puzzle is hand-crafted and interspersed with tiny narrative vignettes. Experience a calming, wordless story about cats and parenthood by solving adorable puzzles in Inbento.
