Hey you!
You are now the red one. What would you do next?

If you read the situation correctly, you will probably choose to squat, like everyone else does.

If you can't read it right, don't worry, we have a game to test your ability to read situations!
Kuukiyomi, or 空気読み, is a Japanese slang, which means "read the air", if you translate it literally. In English, it means something like "read the situation".
The game Kuukiyomi is about how to act in different scenarios. For example: Santa Claus is bringing presents but you are awake, what should you do?

Before playing Kuukiyomi, I was quite curious how the localization of the game is done. Because this game is basically about culture, Japanese culture, to be specific, and it is pretty hard to translate those social norms.
It turns out that it is indeed difficult. I feel confused playing this game from time to time.
Despite the lost in translation and the annoying ads, Kuukiyomi is still an entertaining game. Play if you love quirky little puzzle games, such as Hidden my game by mom or Crazy Freekick.

I think the game itself is not meant to be localized because you cannot localize the Japanese's personalities. They could do more about the titles though.

kuukiyomi - Very Japanese Problems
We all somehow know about the Japanese culture - their manga, anime, games, samurai, food... Well, here's the chance to get to know about something more subtle - their personalities. The rule for kuukiyomi (or literally 'read the air' in Japanese) is actually pretty simple - just do whatever you feel most appropriate or considerate in a couple of different situations, and you will get a score by the end of each test. Would you stand right behind somebody to form a perfect straight queue? Would you make some space for a chatty couple in love? While finding yourself in some common or strange place, remember to ask yourself: what would the Japanese people do?
