About the Game

DW is an adventure RPG about a world full of drawings. Jake, a human teenager, wakes up one day to find himself stranded in this world. Before long, its local police place him under arrest. His crime? Being human. With nothing but a mysterious paint brush at your disposal, escape the police and explore the colorful world of DW in your journey to find a way back home. But be careful; there are those who would stop at nothing to find a human being and use him for their own purposes...
