I didn't have more than a vague idea either, so I looked up the Japanese words:
kemono: animal, puyo: a kind of game where larger groups of matching tiles pop [1], tanoshii: fun
I therefore conclude that this is intended to be a fun game of the puyo genre where the tiles are pictures of animals extracted from a photo and whether they match is determined (by their label from a classifier? <-- not sure about this).
EDIT: Yes, the check for removal is done per name [2]. But the tiles do not even have to touch! I think this is still a bit unfinished on the game end.
