About the Game

Make your way through the grid, solving word mazes and jigsaw puzzles. The words will lead you through a surreal, liminal space and require the collection of puzzle pieces to unlock the path forward. The atmosphere is chill, and relaxed, involving walking, jumping, and flying mechanics.

At the heart of the game is a poetic verse, attempting to explain what it has found within the grid.

Features:

With over 120 modest sized rooms with about 80 mazes and 24 puzzles, expect at least 8 hours of play.

Controls:

The game can be played with either a Keyboard & Mouse, or a Gamepad.

All controls can be customized, including an inverted Y axis option.
