Store description excerpt
The giant water bug (Tagame), Japan's largest aquatic insect, lives in ponds in rural mountain areas. This is a relaxing idle-raising game where you can leisurely raise these cute yet brave giant water bugs. The giant water bug is listed as Vulnerable (VU) on the Ministry of the Environment's Red List and was designated a "Specific Second Class Domestic Rare Wild Animal and Plant Species" in 2020, meaning it is a creature that is rapidly disappearing from Japan. Its population is drastically declining throughout the country due to pesticides, the drying of rice paddies, and light pollution. This game is a gentle environmental education game that encourages familiarity with nature and conservation by "raising, learning about, and loving" these giant water bugs. No complicated controls are required. Simply maintain clean water and monitor its feeding. Then, just watch the giant water bugs clinging to aquatic plants as they gradually grow from larvae to subimagoes and then to magnificent adults. Take a peek at the pond during breaks from work or studying, or before going to bed. ■ What kind of game is it? - Raise the endangered giant water bug (Giant Water Bug) from larva to adult through hands-off care. - Simple care: maintain clean water and monitor feeding. - It grows steadily even when the app is closed. - It grows into a large adult about 6.5cm long, progressing through three stages: larva → subimago → adult. ■ Experience the ecology of the giant water bug. - "Ambush predation," where it lies hidden among aquatic plants, waiting for prey. It firmly catches small fish, tadpoles, and frogs with its sickle-like forelegs. - As it grows larger, the male's "paternal care (egg protection)" is unlocked. The sight of it protecting the eggs by pouring water on them is unique to the giant water bug. - Carefully observe the waterside of a pond in a rural area on a horizontal screen. ■ Points of relaxation. - A tranquil pond waterside spreads across the entire horizontal screen. - Completely free, no in-app purchases. Offline gameplay, no internet connection required - The soothing sound of flowing water and background music create a calming atmosphere. ■ Recommended for: - Those who love giant water bugs, aquatic insects, and bugs in general - Those who love rural landscapes, ponds, and Japanese nature and wildlife - Those who want to relax with a calming, idle game - Those who want to learn about endangered species and the environment with their children Giant water bugs will weaken if they run out of water or food, so please check on them gently once a day. Let's slowly raise giant water bugs in your pond, where they are disappearing. The more you raise them, the more you will love giant water bugs and the nature of rural landscapes. *This work is a work of fiction based on real-life ecology. Wild giant water bugs are protected by law and their capture and sale are regulated. Encounters with living creatures are within the game. Recommended age
