How it feels
A gentle, handcrafted storybook adventure filled with tender moments, innocent puzzles, and a quietly nostalgic sense of childhood wonder.

What players say
Players describe a warm, sentimental story about a childhood crush told through simple puzzles and light collection. The art and music evoke a picture book. Most finish in about an hour, and several say the price feels high for the length. It includes a 15-minute short film from 2023.
