This is a charming little puzzly bit of escapology taking place across four seasons from a central location.
You are a travelling herbalist making your way through the mountains to reach a village ravaged by sickness.
You are the only one who can create a cure, but you find yourself instead inside a hut with four keys and a door that isn’t to your world.

Can you find your way back?

I like a game you can complete in two hours too.


It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

I just finished this little gem of a game. The whole game is as wonderful as the screencaps in flotsam’s review. The developer estimates the playtime to 1-2 hours on the Steam page, and it took flotsam 2 hours, but I think I spent at least 3 hours with it. I managed to complete it without any help, but got VERY stuck a few times. But that suits me perfectly, as long as I’m able to get out of it.

The only objection I have is that there were always large arrows, a menu icon, and a vertical inventory ribbon pushed quite far in from the right edge of the screen. The images are so gorgeous that they deserve to be displayed without interfering elements, which could easily have been avoided. I also missed traditional manual saves (which aren’t really traditional anymore, but you know what I mean). You could save your progress at any point, but only by returning to a specific scene.

Thanks for sharing that info, Mikael! I bought the game today but who knows when I'll play it.

I am playing this now (and also beta testing a certain game, don't worry Mikael.) :-)
I too am very much enjoying it and I agree, the best part is getting stuck and then having that "a ha" moment when you figure it out...
