About the Game

"You won't be challenged, here is what's left." —— Toji Molabi

The Simplest Game in the World is a narrative video game that pokes and prods ideas of a game being simple, or being otherwise. The gameplay is intentionally straightforward, just so we see what can be achieved by simply key pressing.

Expect a short hike, but also expect distractions since chambers arise as you explore, offering chances to take a deeper peek inside.

That said, feel free to dive in and break the game.
