Information

TENDAGAMES Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Ryohei Asaoka; hereinafter referred to as “TENDAGAMES”) is supporting the development of the browser game “Jomo Karuta”, a local karuta game from Gunma Prefecture, which is being distributed on the game platform “Yamada Games” operated by Yamada Denki Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture; CEO: Takahiro Sano; hereinafter referred to as “Yamada Denki”).

We have recorded the card reading and navigation voices of voice actors “Yohei Azagami” and “Ritsuka Tachibana,” both from Gunma Prefecture. These voices will be available as paid additional voices after the next major update (late August to early September). This time, ahead of the release date, the video will be available for free for a limited time from June 25, 2025 until the release date. Please take this opportunity to enjoy the two speakers reading the “Jomo Karuta”, which uses a unique voice that differs from normal dialogue or general conversation.

Although the local karuta “Jomo Karuta” is loved by the people of Gunma Prefecture, the number of opportunities to play it has decreased in recent years. This time, the focus is on “Jomo Karuta”, and as part of a joint project between Gunma Prefecture and Yamada Games, Tenda Games has been involved in the development, digitizing this valuable educational material for learning about Gunma Prefecture’s history, culture, and geography, while also releasing it as an easy-to-play browser game that is accessible to younger generations.
