Pine: A Story of Loss Cuts Deep into Grief with a Woodworker's Tale
Dive into Pine: A Story of Loss, a poignant interactive story and video game from Fellow Traveller and Made Up Games, now available on Android. This emotionally resonant experience, reminiscent of titles like Monument Valley in its artistic style, takes you on a deeply moving journey alongside its protagonist.
A Journey Through Grief, Memory, and Hope
Pine: A Story of Loss presents a simple yet profound premise. You play a woodworker finding solace in a beautifully illustrated forest glade, seemingly tending his garden and gathering wood. Beneath the surface, however, lies a profound grief. Memories of his deceased wife repeatedly surface, drawing him into bittersweet flashbacks. Instead of suppressing these memories, he channels his sorrow into crafting small wooden mementos, a tangible expression of his enduring love.
Pine: A Story of Loss masterfully evokes a spectrum of emotions. This wordless, interactive short story, easily completed in a single sitting, guides you through the couple's happy memories via charming puzzles and mini-games. Each carving the woodworker creates carries a subtle thread of hope.
The game's undeniable highlight is its breathtaking hand-drawn art by Tom Booth, a veteran artist who's collaborated with industry giants like DreamWorks, Netflix, Nickelodeon, Supercell, and HarperCollins. Teaming with programmer Najati Imam, Booth sought to craft a deeply personal and resonant narrative.
Will You Embark on This Journey?
Beyond its stunning visuals, the game boasts a fitting soundtrack and immersive sound design. The absence of dialogue is expertly compensated for by the subtle sounds of rustling leaves, creaking wood, and a poignant musical score, all contributing to the overall immersive experience.
If you appreciate games that prioritize emotional resonance and narrative depth over complex gameplay, Pine: A Story of Loss is a must-try. Available now on the Google Play Store for $4.99.
