TOKYO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Today, May 20th, Bank of Innovation Inc., (Head office: Shinjuku-ku,

and English versions of “CandyAnimal”, a game and health care app for
the iOS that can be linked to Apple Watch (wearable wristwatch-type
computer from Apple Inc., released on April 24th, 2015).

From CEO:

“This service was developed in-house by volunteers, over a period of
less than half a year. This app is targeted mainly at young people, and
young women in particular. In addition, we are planning to hold
real-world events outside of the app, and I hope that it will make
working out fun and easy.”

About CandyAnimal

CandyAnimal is an app combining elements of casual idle games and health
care apps, where you progress the game by walking. According to the
number of steps you take, you accumulate coins which can be used in game
play. The game is easy to play – just tap and swipe, and the player’s
number of steps and calories burned are recorded in real time and
displayed by graph within the app. The design of the characters and the
game world have a friendly feel. The player takes the role of Candy
Master, and progresses the game by collecting lots of “Candy Animals”
which are the ingredients for making candies.

of steps, you will receive coins which you can use to buy “Sugar” to

Sugar, and they will be recorded in Animal Library.
