A narrative-driven action-adventure where player choices shape a story set in a misty, melancholy tree-top community.

What players say

Players praise the unique heart-or-mind choice mechanic and the mix of action, platforming, and decision-making. The platforming is challenging with a stamina-based grab system like Tomb Raider Anniversary. Reviews split on control tightness, but most find the game a satisfying, heartfelt experience that fits one or two evenings.
