The Last Tinker™: City of Colors

The Last Tinker is a joyous action adventure and definitely no platformer, as there is no jump button. Koru, a boy from the slums of Colortown, must rise and stand against the Bleakness, a dark force intent on wiping out joy. Koru must use color and emotion to restore life to Colortown!

About the Game



The Last Tinker is a vivid journey through Colortown, a world built upon creativity, emotion and collaboration. It's Mimimi's take on all-time classics like "Jack and Daxter" or "Banjo-Kazooie", while breaking the mold by not having a jump button.



A dark force named The Bleakness has emerged and seeks to tear the colors apart, draining all joy and life from the world.
Koru, a young boy from the slums of Colortown, takes action, though. He embarks on an epic adventure to face the Bleakness and to restore joy and color to his home.

It's a real throwback to the 90's. You can play the game with your kids or, even better, rediscover the kid in yourself, lean back and enjoy this colorful ride.
