About Poko and the Root Labyrinth
The Sunpatch Lantern that lights the village is fading. Only the Seed of Light can bring it back—and it lies deep beneath a great tree, in the Root Labyrinth, whose paths change every time you enter. Become Poko the mushroom and explore the labyrinth one step at a time. When you move, the enemies move. Items on the floor, glowing treasure, stairs beyond a dead end—how you proceed is up to you. ■ A new labyrinth every time No two runs are the same. Every trip is a fresh adventure. ■ Fall, and you drop everything But the strength Poko gains stays. Trade your star shards for tools and try again. ■ Glowing things are treasure The brighter the glow, the rarer the treasure. Fill your collection book as you go. ■ Rankings Compete with other players by how deep you reach and what you clear. ■ Continue on any device Just choose a name to start. Link with Apple later to keep your progress across iPhones. ■ English and Japanese The game switches language automatically based on your device. You can change it anytime from the title screen or Settings.
