Gesshizu

Gesshizu (げっしーず, Gesshiizu) are a group of mysterious iyashikei video game characters, who resemble different rodents and are different colors, but all have prominent front teeth. They were created in 2018 as a joint project between the Japanese companies San-X and Nippon Columbia. The name Gesshizu comes from the word gesshirui (げっしるい, rodent). The characters hatch from eggs and are based on rodents like the Japanese dwarf flying squirrel, octodon, and capybara. Between 2018 and 2022 three Gesshizu Nintendo Switch games were developed and published in Japan by Nippon Columbia. One of the games was also released internationally in 2023 by Aksys Games. In 2020 a mobile game app, also by Nippon Columbia, was released. A Gesshizu novelization was published in Japan in 2019, and two different manga series have been serialized in Japanese magazines.
