You are trapped in a puzzling place, searching for meaning and a way home. At its heart, it is the story of rekindling hope in an otherwise hopeless world.”

This looks hauntingly beautiful and it was quite a surprise to discover that it’s releasing today. 🥰 I really hope it turns out as good as it seems as a touching puzzle game is right up my alley. There is also an explore mode where you can just wander around the world talking to the characters at your own pace.

The music in the trailer is from LAMB and it is called As Satellites Go By.
