Chiikawa Puzzle came out in 2022, created by Nagano’s Chiikawa Project. It’s a light puzzle game built around the lovable Chiikawa characters. Instead of matching tiles or sliding blocks, the goal is to rebuild faces without seeing where you’ve already placed each part. That mix of memory and surprise is what gives the game its charm.
You tap to drop eyes, ears, or mouths onto the blank canvas. The catch is you don’t get to see earlier placements, so memory matters more than speed. It’s easy to pick up, works on desktop or mobile, and doesn’t need any downloads.
Start with the biggest shape, usually the head.
Count clicks to avoid losing track of where parts go.
Play slower—rushing almost always makes things funnier, but less accurate.
What makes Chiikawa Puzzle special is the mix of cute artwork and unpredictable results. Sometimes you get a perfect face, other times a hilarious mess. Both outcomes are part of the fun.
