Inside an old wooden box lies four curious items: a toy lizard, a captured moth, a screwdriver and a seashell. Each one has its own story to tell…

Step into four hand-drawn memories and discover the mysteries lurking beneath the seemingly calm surface. Explore one story at a time, or play them in a single sitting, in this solo-play adventure about the stories we tell ourselves and how they shape our world.

Average playtime is 45 minutes.


The Four Stories

Each story has a distinct gameplay and art style and can be played in any order:

  • Familiar: Experience the challenges of a family assembling a flat-pack cabinet.
  • The Paludarium: Immerse yourself in a world where a boy, home alone, navigates nature's invasion.
  • The Last Sand Castle: Interact with the music-loving inhabitants of a sand castle.
  • The House of the Moon: Join Alma on a journey as she searches for her lost mother in a mysterious seascape.


Prepare to embark on a journey of nostalgia, mystery, and thought-provoking exploration.

I have it on my switch. Beautiful is to say the least. It is one of those games that although you don't have to do much, the fact of enjoying what you see has already been worth buying it :)

What a charming project!

Granted that there's not much gameplay in it, it's still a fascinating little art project that I support 100%. (I particularly liked the lizard one.) Who knows, if this kind of stuff gets more recognition, there may be a Karel Zeman type game, or a Norstein type game. Possibilities are endless.

This is what happens  when you buy furniture from Ikea! :)) art reminds me of :Rene Laloux -Fantastic planet or old Estonian animation. Screenshot with sand castle  has very much a Samorost feel to it.  Took me a while to  figure furniture pushing trick. I thought of it like a sequence...first you push with one person they with the other  but it was not like that! :) 
NNice feel to it!

Wow! Just played the demo and I'm amazed.
Great concept and development of a "cutsy uncanny valley".
