Tactile impact

Exceptional visual direction
Smart use of music and sound

Music as language
Fable-like narrative
Revels in the quiet moments
Thoughtful but simple mechanics

The lack of text/dialogue allows players to interpret the story in their own way, which can be powerful and unique for each player.
Environmental puzzles are thoughtfully designed and require cooperation between the two main characters, adding variety to exploration.
The game?s minimalist, expressive visuals are stunning, with a limited colour palette that adds emotional weight and atmosphere.
Singing to interact with your puppy and the environment is creative and touching. It adds a layer of emotional depth without needing any dialogue.
