TANUKI: Pon's Summer is out.
English pages for the life sim on a BMX: what the store says about the Post Office job, the shrine, and the challenges. The game unlocked on 10 Nov 2026. Where a route, a price, or a challenge name was never printed, the page says so.
Store text, price, platforms, languages, categories, requirements, and the highlighted achievement names are from the Steam appdetails API in English on 12 Nov 2026. The publisher page, the 10 Nov 2026 press release, and the Steam community announcements through 11 Nov 2026 were read the same day. No client was played for this pass.

01 Guide
The month, the Post Office job, the festival, and the lines the store never printed.
02 Delivery
What “delivery routes” means when no map was published. Awkward boxes, and nothing past that.
03 Shrine
Rebuild, upgrade, and decorate before the festival. No cost list and no build order.
04 BMX
Ramps, rails, and two official counts of the challenges. No numbered list.
The store’s own frames
Six of the eleven screenshots on the Steam page. A picture of a stack of parcels is not a route, and a rail grind is not a named challenge.
TANUKI: Pon's Summer is a single-player life sim from Denkiworks, published by CRITICAL REFLEX, on Steam (AppID 3218570). It released 10 November 2026. On 12 November 2026 the app was no longer marked coming soon. The Steam price was $19.99, and the platforms field was Windows only.
The store follows Pon, a well meaning and a bit lazy tanuki with a part-time Post Office job. He has a month to deliver packages, make friends, and restore a shrine before the Tanuki Festival. The longer text calls that event the Great Tanuki Festival.
The press release the same day also lists Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox consoles, Xbox on PC, and Xbox Game Pass, at 19.99 USD, 15.99 GBP, or 19.99 EUR. Those storefronts are not the Steam platforms field.
There is no redeem-code list, no printed route map, and no numbered BMX challenge index. The store says “over 100” challenges. Two announcements say “100 and 1.” This site keeps both sentences and invents neither list.
The pages
English only. A line from the Steam page or an official post is labeled with the day it was read. A missing stat stays missing.
