About this game

What is "Reimu Needs Help!? Aunn-chan to the Rescue!"?
In this game, the komainu of the Hakurei Shrine, Komainu Aunn,
does her best to resolve the shrine maiden Hakurei Reimu's problems,
all through combining two words to create items by stopping slot reels.
So, it's a puzzle & simulation game about solving problems by giving items.

*This game is a Touhou Project fangame.



-Game Overview

In order to solve Reimu's problems, for example, "I'm hungry!",
you'll stop the slot reels to grab an adjective like "red" or "sweet,"
and then stop them again to grab a noun like "fruit" or "cloth."
"Red"+"fruit" might combine to make "apple," for example.
Complete items and bring them to Reimu to make her happy,
and aim to clear each stage by solving enough of her problems.


But of course, Reimu won't be happy if you bring her something unhelpful.
If she's hungry, she'll want food, or at least something related to it.
Try to aim to bring her items that'll solve her problems,
and keep bringing her more and more to help the often-troubled shrine maiden.


You won't know what two words will make until you try combining them.
Items can also change depending on Reimu's current problem,
and you'll sometimes end up making something totally unexpected.
Find combinations of words that sound like they could be useful,
and accurately stop the slots when needed to make something good.


You'll need to quickly solve Reimu's problems before time runs out and she gets fed up.
Some items will make her even happier than others, or even make her angry,
but seeing what happens when you give her something weird is all part of the fun.
