About the Game

Tune into this cozy mindfulness simulator driven by a spatial audio narrative & calming rhythm mechanics.

**Headphones required for the spatial audio experience**

NARRATIVE

Play as Linda who, after being laid off, seeks peace hiking through the emotionally transformative Appalachian Trail, inspired by her Granny's illustrative journal of the same trail from the 1980s.

GAMEPLAY

Bluegrass is an experiential, episodic audio-narrative rhythm game through the soundscape of Appalachia. In a linear adventure to Mt. Katahdin, tune your ears into the relaxing ASMR cues. Allow yourself to be guided by Linda's inner Conscience as you keep the heart pace steady by regulating her breathwork & completing rhythm chores on the trail.

FEATURES

  • Unveil Granny's hand-drawn art collectibles as you realize the episodic goals.

  • Choose difficulty level based on how intense you'd like the breathwork goal to get in each episode.

  • Immersive spatial soundscape - teleport to the countryside among the Appalachian woods.

  • 10 episodes of imagination extravaganza! Play entirely with your ears while offering rest to the eyes.

  • Minimal mechanics - only spacebar and arrow keys.

  • Steady-paced, aimed at relaxation and mindfulness.

  • Comforting countryside Bluegrass instrumental music.
