Welcome to Hint City
“Answers” are not just provided—they are discovered by you.
Welcome to “Hint City.”
What This Site Values
This site isn’t about “just getting the answers”—it’s about celebrating the “joy of making discoveries on your own.” Furthermore, this is more than just a typical game walkthrough site. Our core concept is “Edutainment” (Education + Entertainment), using gaming experiences as a springboard to spark curiosity about real-world wildlife and natural sciences.
Why Do We Use Hints?
When you get stuck in a game, looking up the answer right away is convenient. However, looking back, the moments that stick with us the most are often when we figured it out ourselves. At Hint City, we use a step-by-step hint system to preserve that magical “Aha!” moment as much as possible.
Discoveries in Games and the Real World
Video games are full of elements inspired by real-world creatures, ecosystems, nature, and urban design. With that in mind, this site creates exploratory content designed to turn your in-game discoveries into a deeper curiosity about the world around us.
About “Itokoron”

Word has it that whenever they find something new, they use their own thread to knit a special headpiece inspired by that very discovery.
Itokoron is here to explore the “joy of discovery” right alongside you!

Behind the Site
Itona Murasaki
While working full-time in the IT department of a manufacturing company, I enjoy gaming and creating illustrations in my free time.
