Grandson enjoyed it so much is asking if you doing another.. Graphics were wonderful. Each story kept max amazed hes started from the beginning now."Jeni R. on 16. September 2016:"My 4 year olds first game Wanted to finally introduce our 4 year old to games and chose this for its cute characters and innocence. He needed some gentle explanation for the controls and the idea that he could let go of things to try them in places but after that he loved it. His eyes lit up on the second level when he saw a little boy Zwuggel play with a train enthused to Mama & after stopping he emulated the girl climbing across the waterfall using sticks for hand and footholds. Full marks from this parent -- good safe fun :) "Made by a small indie teamStefan Leuchtenberg — Art Illustrations Animations Character DesignJohannes Krämer — Game Design Programming TechWe work with other external artists and professionals for sound music translations etc.From mobile to your desktopThis game was initially developed for mobile devices and we wanted to bring it to the large screens of desktops as well!For the Steam version we added keyboard input in some of the chapters where we believe makes intuitively sense.The majority of the chapters is played with the mouse by pointing clicking and dragging.Also only the Steam version comes with Achievements (Psst some hidden ones too).If you have suggestions or comments including about controls or input please email us!Privacy Your privacy is important to us: This game does not collect any personal information.This game does not contain any ads or in-app-purchases.
