About the game

An experimental short from the creator of To the Moon & Finding Paradise: A simple & surreal 1-hour interactive animation about a boy and an injured bird, told without dialogues. If you're looking for To the Moon-like experience, I'd suggest playing Finding Paradise first.

    A beautiful little story, beautifully crafted both musically and visually. I can understand why people with short attention spans might have struggled with it, though. You go into this game expecting a story, and a story is exactly what you get, entirely without dialogue or words

    Yeah. It's good. Not as incredible as Freebird's main storyline games, but it's still simply good. Stories with no dialogue are in a genre that tends to be underexplored so it's nice to try something new for once. It's a heartwarming, short story for when you feel like checking out something a little different. Check out the rest of Freebird's stuff first though.

    A short and occasionally sweet narrative story about a boy and a bird. Wasn't overly memorable or interesting to me. 3/5
