Steam review snapshots
There is so much to discover.Voice acting is really good and the hand drawn backgrounds are the visually best looking backgrounds ive seen in any adventure game.This game is essentially a 2D walking simulator, and the fact that it came as a near-sequel (pun intended) to a full-fledged…It has its funny moments and it has its little emotional moments.Why it fits
Check it if you want adventure filtered by single-player.
