Totems

Totems. It's in japanese, but the point of the game is to click the little guys before they go away. (flash friday)

Glad to see a bit of "Flash Friday" revival.

Jesus, is it just me, or is this infuriatingly difficult? Got to the second screen/level where it all got way too quick for my addled old brain.

No need to click, just point and they count. That makes the game easier.

3 levels, and then it gives you a grade. I got like 51% (B). Fun little diversion.

I finished with a "C". You get good bonuses for waving your mouse back and forth over the gigantic totems about 10 times.

Oh, the goal is to get 100 in 30 seconds. Look at the counter for totems at the bottom left, and the time remaining at the bottom right.

Cheaters: just click once in the game area, then hold down your tab key. My best without cheating was a B-. It was quite a bit easier with my pen tablet than with my trackball.

Anyone know how to turn off the sound? It's super loud, but I'd like to listen to my music.

Weird. Last time I saw that many angry Tiki was The Night of the Bad Poi.

there should be a warning: Game May Induce Seizures.

What are you supposed to do with the big head when it pops up? Like on the first level it comes up underneath the teepee and the rest of gameplay stops?

Am I the only one who thinks the voice doesn't sound like a native speaker?

I don't know, DoctorFedora. I tend to think that no one's pronunciation would be that bad unless they were a native speaker.
