What to look forward to:
Sketch is a game in which you control Am, a being composed of artistic passion, to internally help Taylor deal with the struggles of pursuing an art career. Sketch takes place in the Land of Cere, which is Taylor's mind. The Land of Cere is plagued with many negative thoughts and memories, taking the forms of monsters. These monsters are dimming Taylor's passion to pursue art, so it is Am's duty to erase them and clear Taylor's mind. Am wields a pencil, which can draw shapes to progress through levels and erase enemies to clear Taylor's mind.
Journey through the Land of Cere's 12 regions, each resembling a part of the human mind. Each region introduces more of Taylor's story through 3 platformer levels and 1 boss level. Best of all, you can travel across these regions in any order that you like.
- It's completely free (no microtransactions either)!
- Innovative Draw/Erase mechanic
- Fantastic soundtrack, with 25 gorgeous songs
- 12 Exhilarating and strategic boss fights
- 36 Platformer levels, each revealing parts of the rich story
- 4 In-game achievements per level
- Non-linear Gameplay: Explore the 12 regions in your own order
