About
"Is there a dead body who'd like to be buried in me?"
This is a coming-of-age adventure of a young boy who believes he's an ancient Japanese tomb!
In the city of Friendly, where the story takes place, many residents who are shaped like ancient terracotta clay figures belong to the Haniwa Clan.
Amid them lives a curious boy who is neither human nor Haniwa, but something entirely different… a child shaped like a tiny burial mound.
This boy is Kofun, the protagonist of this adventure.

Kofun has always dreamed of becoming a proper burial mound and one day meeting the body that will rest inside of him.
But despite his dream, he never quite had the courage to go out and search.
That all changed when one day, a spirited boy named Haniwa calls out to him and says, "Come play with me!"
And so...their story begins.

Will Kofun ever find the "perfect body" he's been hoping for?
Come to think of it...if he's neither human nor Haniwa...what even is he?
As you explore the world and meet its many residents, all the questions you and Kofun have will begin to unravel.
Through these encounters, he gradually discovers the truth about his origins.
Enjoy a story full of surprises, following Kofun and his friends through a heartfelt tale of friendship and growth.

In The Little Tomb, you will control the protagonist Kofun. The story begins when you explore the playground he lives in.
Wander through the town, examine objects, interact with the residents, and uncover the story bit by bit.
Every person you meet and every item you interact with helps move the narrative foward.
If something catches your eye, don't hesitate to take a closer look and see what you can reveal.

You can easily navigate through the main story using the handy dandy "To-Do List".
But the adventure doesn't stop there, feel free to stray off the path, hunt for hidden treasures, or explore areas unrelated to the main story as every detour is an opportunity for discovery.
Go through the story with Kofun at your own pace.


Kofun grows and develops by earning Action Points.
You gain Action Points every time Kofun interacts with the world by such as, examining objects, playing on playground equipment, and performing other activities.
Once you've gotten some Action Points, you can use them to get new skills or hints to help you solve puzzles you encounter along the way. Kofun is always learning!

Progress through the story and show Kofun a whole world of new experiences!
Let's head out on an adventure to search for a dead body!

A young boy who lives in Friendly Park. Believes he's an ancient Japanese tomb.
Thinks keyhole-shaped tombs are the coolest of them all.

A young funerary clay sculpture boy who's always full of energy.
He's the one who first shows Kofun the outside world.
Tends to get ahead of himself and act rashly.
Kofun grows throughout his journey as he gets to know all sorts of colorful characters.
Will he be able to find a dead body and become a proper tomb...?

I wasn't quite sure what this game was, but the premise was just too odd for me to not give it a look. This game is a short and sweet adventure game, where you take control of a little tomb-shaped boy called Kofun. Kofun has lived alone in a small park/playground for as long as he can recall, until one day, Haniwa, a boy made out of clay, suddenly arrives and they become friends. From there you control Kofun as him and Haniwa explore other locations in their town, and meet new friends, in their quest to fulfill Kofun's dream of becoming a great tomb. As said above, it's a sweet, odd little story that I had a good time playing through. I wasn't expecting to learn so much about ancient Japanese funerary objects.
[h1]简介[/h1] 《The Little Tomb: The Maholova Club and the Search for a Dead Body》是一款操作绿毛姜饼人的角色冒险游戏,从一个小公园开始,了解到简单的交互、使用等等玩法,就可以开始自己的冒险了,本作和同类型游戏相比,节奏是比较慢的了,看似开放的世界,却只能按照按部就班的完成任务,有点可惜了这套美术资源了,不过因为本作没有中文本地化,虽然英文的单词都很简单也还好理解,但在寻找任务品的时候,还是会花点时间和费点劲的。 [h1]动画电影版的画质[/h1] 游戏的画面和画风确实不错,相当有特色,结合姜饼人的设计,有点福克斯梦工厂的感觉,无论是色调、光线运用在整体上都是比较可爱和小清新的,在加上操作的小姜饼人,更是可爱无疑,一些画面上的细节也展现出来,比如在运动的时候,小姜饼人的绿毛也会随身而动,而且作为一款冒险游戏,还可以通过调节视角,在寻找一些任务品、隐藏道具等等,都常常需要更改视角才能发现。 [h1]玩法[/h1] 随着剧情的推进,这个安全的公园来了一个奇特的罐子,在简单的交流吓,小姜饼人决定和他一起出公园去冒险,见识见识罐子口中说的朋友们,本作支持自动保存,但并不是实时存档,是固定时间的存档,间隔还挺大,所以除了使用自动存档外,也要养好手动存档的习惯。曾经不止一次想离开公园到外面,现如今真的离开了,一时间被外面的风光迷了眼,场景的构建很细腻,细节也很多。然后就是随着剧情的推进,可以结交到非常多的朋友,这些朋友也会有一些任务的需求,完成任务,收集各种隐藏道具,然后可以接到更多的任务,在以任务为驱动的同时,也可以更进一步的了解这个童话世界,在完成任务的时候,经常会有找不到任务品的情况,虽然有所谓的系统提示,但要消耗点数,而且系统的提示也不是很准,只是给了一个大概。 [h1]总结[/h1] 总的来说,《The Little Tomb: The Maholova Club and the Search for a Dead Body》像极了以前所玩的迪士尼、梦工厂等为主题的主角的游戏,都是轻松简单的收集冒险,做做任务拿奖励,整体上是没有太多血腥暴力的内容,就连一些解谜,也是稍调一下视角就能明白怎么破解,非常的简单。对这类比较复古的角色冒险游戏感兴趣的玩家可以实时本作,如果语言问题适应不了,还是不推荐尝试。 [table][td]欢迎关注鉴赏家[url= https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45519015/]“无趣评测”[/url][/td][/table]

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

So the premise of this game is that you're a living burial mound who is looking for a dead body to bury inside them. The trailer juxtaposes this premise with a cute story of Kofun, the main character, making their first friend, a haniwa child called Haniwa, in this beautiful park area that kind of brings to mind the likes of Eternal Egg or Fragrance Park in its design. Of course, I was intrigued - like, what the ♥♥♥♥ is this game? Some sort of abstract fairly tale or parable like Night on the Galactic Railroad? Something extremely strange and tonally clashing? Something darkly comedic? Turns out, it's none of those, it's a lot more straightforward and down-to-earth, but it is very well written. Gameplay-wise it's extremely linear for the most part, railroading you from one story beat to the next, but there is the exception of a couple of sidequests and a surprisingly large amount of flavor text - which incidentally fits in nicely with the story's central theme of personal growth, as Kofun's inner monologue gets more detailed and confident each time an object or location offers new insights. You don't really play it for the gameplay though. Or the visuals, which start out as striking before you realize most of the game's locations have that kind of generic Unity asset shop look that, say, Forklift Load does (as well as the park, the museum is a notably charming exception to this). You play it for the story, which is a genuinely great coming of age story that comes across as a mix of Keita Takahashi's more recent work and Millenium Kitchen's output. The writer not only has a seriously infectious passion for history, but has a professional grasp of how to handle dramatic story beats and twists and keep the player interested despite the game's linearity.
[h2]こふんくんやハニワくんたちが織りなす王道ジュブナイルアドベンチャーゲーム[/h2] 登場人物?が少し不思議だけどストーリーラインはとても王道 学校の怪談とかスタンド・バイ・ミーのような夏休みの小学生が織りなす青春物語を味わえます プレイ時間は5時間前後、プレイ後は爽やかな気持ちになれました 少し変わった物語を求めている人におすすめ 主題歌や挿入歌がどこかで聞けるようになると嬉しいです
こふんが主人公のゲームです。 普通のゲームに飽き飽きした人に。 怪異や変わったものが好きならささると思います。
[h3]こふんあたたまる、ハニワフルストーリー[/h3] ストーリー読むアドベンチャー。 そんなにマメにチェックしなくても多分余裕。 スキルも戦利品もあとで取れるんじゃないかな。 謎世界観だし、世界の謎が明かされるわけでもないけど、青春な感じ。 人間キャラのモデリングがこれまで以上に不気味な気もするけど、ホラーじゃないよ。
Really cute and surreal exploration game. JP voice by Akari Kito, a very famous voice actor. Simple stuff, walk around, do quests, all just for you to find a dead body for yourself lol
Very cute game and a good way to do some light Japanese study. 楽しみ遊びます。 いつもありがとうございます、CAVYHOUSEさん
寄り道しつつストーリークリア済み。 全実績達成まで楽しく遊びました。 のっけから主人公が古墳の形をしていて、ずっとEテレでやってる教育番組を途中から観てるような不思議な体験が続きますが、 概要に書かれているように、王道ジュブナイルもののアドベンチャーゲームで、 主人公は自分が何者で、どう生きるべきなのか悩み、そして、将来に思いを馳せるというエモーショナルなストーリーが展開されます。 死体を探すという導入からスタンドバイミーを連想させるように まさに、子供達が公園や秘密基地で集まり作戦会議して、身近な事件を捜査するといった体験が味わえます。 放課後に仲間で集まったあの雰囲気を思い起こさせてくれ、とても気に入りました。 強いていえば、もっと何か事件が起きてマホロヴァクラブが解決するようなパートをたくさん遊びたかったと思いましたが 事件が頻繁に起こるような世界観ではないので、今のままのほっこり平和な雰囲気がこのゲームらしいと思います。 登場人物が埴輪や土偶という絵面のシュールさは、突拍子もないものではなくちゃんと設定があります。 ただ、その設定はストーリー中盤まで説明されないので、最初に人間に出会った時に「普通の人間がいる世界観なの!?」とかなりビックリしました。そしてそのまま埴輪と人間が普通に会話し始めたので2度ビックリしました。 難しいゲームでは無く、表示される目標をこなしていけばゲームに慣れていない人でもクリアできる難易度だと思います。 このゲームでしか味わえない感動があると思いますし、マンホールのうんちくも聞けますので、ぜひみなさんに遊んでもらいたいとお勧めできる作品です。
短い時間にいろんな楽しさがギュッと詰まった良ゲー! どこを調べてもテキストの読みがいがあるし、博物館や発掘のわくわくが味わえて、ビジュアルもばっちりかわいい。前方後円墳、いいよね。いい。 やりのこしのヒントも丁寧で、おかげで全要素回収もストレスがなかったです。
