Original Description:
(Translation) The "Kendama" is a typical Japanese traditional toy, where a ball tied to a hammer-shaped stick is thrown in order to catch it with the stick in a specific position.
Use your mouse to move the Kendama, and click to throw the ball.
Catching the ball the first time yields 5 points; the second time, 4 points, and so on.
Failing 5 times in a row ends the game.
Catching the ball the first time in consecutive stages (i.e. in different positions) increments a point multiplier: double for 2 stages, triple for 3, etc., and bonus points are added.
When the ball swings, try moving it to counter the swinging before a catch attempt. Every 4 stages, the movement of the ball gets more difficult to predict, so try catching at the earliest attempt possible.
The best time ranking is calculated and can be registered by clicking the "Entry" button in the Game Over screen.
