The newly released Pine: A Story of Loss on Android, developed by Fellow Traveller and Made Up Games, invites players into an emotional journey through an interactive story and video game. Drawing stylistic inspiration from titles like Monument Valley, Pine stands out with its poignant narrative of grief, memory, and hope.

It’s a Journey Through Grief, Memory, and Hope

The premise of Pine: A Story of Loss is beautifully straightforward yet profound. You step into the shoes of a woodworker, immersed in a stunningly illustrated forest glade, engaging in everyday tasks such as gardening and wood gathering. However, beneath this serene exterior lies a heart heavy with grief. The woodworker is haunted by memories of his deceased wife, which manifest as poignant flashbacks. Rather than shunning these memories, he transforms them into wooden keepsakes, a tangible means to preserve his enduring love.

Pine: A Story of Loss is an emotive, wordless experience that can be completed in a single session. Through engaging puzzles and mini-games, you'll relive the joyful moments of the couple's past. Each carving created by the woodworker's hands is imbued with a sense of hope, adding depth to the narrative.

The game's visual allure lies in its hand-drawn art, masterfully crafted by Tom Booth, a seasoned artist known for his work with DreamWorks, Netflix, Nickelodeon, Supercell, and HarperCollins. Together with programmer Najati Imam, Booth brings this deeply personal story to life with breathtaking illustrations.
