Toru Otani: "The green plasterboard was created by combining two of the same boards as the red plasterboard piece, because when the printed numbers and symbols were connected to create a geometric pattern, it looked like some kind of game board. The green color is colored to resemble a roulette game mat, mahjong, or casino. The title of the game itself does not exist either. The title, like "Moon," is a word created by connecting kanji characters and words left unpainted."
