inbento is a pattern-matching puzzle game developed and published by Afterburn where players assemble Japanese lunch boxes to match specific recipes. Each level provides a set of ingredients and a target image, requiring the precise placement of food items into a grid-based bento box. Interactive illustrations between chapters depict a wordless narrative centered on a cat family and the progression of parenthood.

Over 120 puzzles require players to rotate, move, swap, and copy food ingredients to complete complex patterns. A textless tutorial introduces these mechanics, maintaining a relaxed pace without written instructions. This design combines mechanical depth with a zen aesthetic.
