The release shows a follower work can reach the App Store through official review channels, in contrast to the fake smartphone ads and copycat store pages that have plagued Meccha Chameleon.

Developer Taishi Nakai has released the asymmetric online game Chameleon Kakurenbo - chameleon online for iPhone. The 2D title is an acknowledged follower of Meccha Chameleon, with a store page noting it was inspired by that game. Unlike prior fake versions, this one passed Apple's App Store review.
Chameleon Kakurenbo - chameleon online is now available free on iPhone, and it is not another fake. Developer Taishi Nakai's 2D asymmetric game has players on the hiding side painting a chameleon icon into a randomly selected picture within a time limit, while the seeker taps the screen to find the hidden icon within a set number of tries.
The store page openly states the game was inspired by Meccha Chameleon, a distinction from the fraudulent smartphone ads and VR copycat store pages that have circulated before. Distribution through Apple's App Store means the game passed Apple's review process, though the developer's other iOS releases are casual games and tools, and little else is known about them.
