A Tiny Wander

Active Now

“A Tiny Wander” is a mysterious adventure of deciphering and unraveling the riddles of the forest’s secrets, through exploration, discovery, and interactions with the locals.

This non-linear narrative’s most distinctive characteristic is that riddles don’t feel like riddles, due to its deep connection of setting, unfolding mysteries, and story.

A Journey Surrounding a Forest’s Mystifying Secrets

Constantly crowded with those who lose their way, a forest of enormous trees one day became feared by locals as the “Awry Forest,” severing it from the outside world. And yet, a certain traveling delivery pigling thoughtlessly accepts a delivery to such a precarious forest.
Fulfill the delivery to the farthest reaches of the forest, guiding the traveler via conversations and the truth behind observations of unusual events encountered.

Camp, Coffee, and a Full Moon

Realizing that the delivery to the farthest reaches of the forest is not a walk in the park, the traveler sets up camp at the edge of the forest to gather clues. Residents like a grumbling furry friend and a fishing fanatic mushroom have worries, and resolving these “slightly quirky” residents’ troubles could connect to important leads. On top of that, the time treating these locals to coffee, and being absorbed in light-conversation around a campfire under the full moon are the valuable moments of a journey.

The Setting is the Mystery Itself

Holding a lantern in hand, look closely, listen carefully, and move cautiously. Illuminate signposts too dark to read, and perk your ears to the hints concealed in the residents' stories. The terrain thwarts your exploration, haul materials, and set up bridges. Do this and you’ll realize the connection to everything as you come to know the world and expand your “Memories.”
That trek of steps will surely guide the traveler to the farthest reaches of the forest before long.
