A lighthearted retro platformer about a skeleton collecting his bones and tools to rebuild his body and find his way home.

What players say

Players praise the clever puzzle mechanic of assembling a skeleton from body parts, but say the game relies heavily on trial and error with limited visibility and long reloads, making exploration feel punished rather than rewarded.
