A Heartwarming Tale of Friendship and Healing
Cottongame, the creators behind Reviver and Mr. Pumpkin Adventure, introduces Sunset Hills - their latest Android puzzle adventure dripping with charm. True to their signature style, this bittersweet narrative unfolds across soft pastel landscapes featuring vintage architecture and anthropomorphic canine companions.
Following Nico's Emotional Homecoming
You step into the shoes of Nico Grant, a bookish war veteran turned novelist embarking on a deeply personal journey in June 794. Seven years after the conflict ended, nostalgia compels him to visit former squadmates Ferruccio, Doug and Roy via a meandering train route.
The story peels back layers of Nico's past - his childhood as a quiet dreamer more comfortable with stories than socializing. The war forcibly pulled him from his comfort zone, where his slight stature and different nature made him an outsider. Yet through handwritten journals, this misfit gradually connected with his comrades.
Now as an established author, Nico retraces his wartime bonds while traveling through picturesque towns. Each destination blends thoughtful puzzles with poignant storytelling moments.
Post-War Life Through a Puzzle Lens
Sunset Hills delivers classic point-and-click adventure gameplay with emotional depth. Conversations provide crucial clues as you gather supplies, solve creative environmental puzzles, assist quirky townsfolk, and occasionally evade danger.
The diverse challenges range from baking and sewing to musical performances and detective work. This charming mix of activities brings Nico's world to life.
Beautifully hand-illustrated 2D characters inhabit subtly rendered 3D environments inspired by Victorian architecture. This artistic fusion creates a uniquely nostalgic atmosphere.
Sunset Hills awaits on Google Play Store for those seeking thoughtful storytelling blended with inventive puzzles.
