About Homerun Miko
Homerun Miko is a sporty, spiritual adventure that combines inspiration visually from Hades, puzzle design from the classic Legend of Zelda, and puppet character control from Astral Chain and fighting games.
As daughter to a long line of shrine maidens and baseball prodigy, you'll combine your trusty bat and throwing arm with your newfound spirit ability to seal the snow spirits roaming the Kibashi shrine, while unraveling the story behind your family ritual.
You are not alone! Kousuke, your fox-spirit guide, will provide hints and backstory to help you solve puzzles and develop an understanding of your duties as the next shrine maiden.
A cast of colorful, expressive, and comedic characters lay ahead of you! Enjoy hand drawn illustrations and character portraits, an original soundtrack, and the signature banter that signify Hanami and Kousuke's blooming friendship. Can you solve all 24 puzzles?
The Spirit Realm's rooms may be defined, but the puzzle solutions aren't always. Replay levels from the Level Select to experiment with different routes. Will you be able to find the 4 secret Snowmon?
Turn on the Speedrun Timer toggle in the menu to test your skills and save the Spirit Realm in the blink of an eye! Use your knowledge of the puzzle solutions and Hanami's Spirit ability to figure out the quickest way through the shrine.

✦ AI summary
Players praise this puzzle game for its charming presentation, relaxing yet engaging brain-teasing puzzles, cute visuals, pleasant music, and heartwarming story that can be completed in about an hour. However, some criticize the keyboard controls for being imprecise during the ice-floor sections, where positioning is critical, and note that the bat-swinging mechanic can cause unintended movement that throws off puzzle solutions, with a few puzzles potentially soft-locking players if they're not positioned exactly right.
This is a really charming puzzle game. It takes about an hour to complete, and no puzzles really take more than a few tries, but there's a little side quest to do, nice music, cute visuals, and simple, sweet little story. Just a wonderful way to spend a bit of the afternoon.6 found this helpful

It's short and sweet, love beating up rabbits with a baseball bat2 found this helpful
A well done puzzle game! The controls are responsive, the story is well made, and it has a good challenge for those who are interested in it. If you want a fun and short puzzle game with narrative elements, then I would check Homerun Miko out!
This is a puzzle game that desperately needs controller compatibility as you're constantly slipping on the icy floors, which isn't good when you need to be at the right position for the puzzles. Swinging the bat moves you forward, which throws off your position when you're just moving things. It certainly doesn't help when you encounter some situational puzzles that can soft-lock you if you're not within a few hair's width of your target. This is a shame as the overall presentation and music is very good and adds an amusing twist with the baseball theme.
