Overview

About this game

Look to the Birds is a relaxing first-person birdwatching game set in the forests, wetlands, and shores of New England/Atlantic Canada. Experience the quiet joy of slowing down, noticing nature, and capturing moments of beauty through your camera lens.

Play as a young birder traveling with family on a road trip. Each stop along the journey is a handcrafted diorama filled with local birdlife to discover. Look around, listen for calls, and photograph over 30 unique species to fill your growing bird book journal with sketches, notes, and observations.

As you complete your journal, new locations unlock — each introducing fresh scenery, new birds, and subtle story moments that unfold naturally in the background. Whether you’re a seasoned birder or simply looking for a calm escape, Look to the Birds offers a soothing blend of photography, exploration, and atmosphere.

Photograph over 30 North American bird species! From Starlings to Great Blue Herons, the birds in this game represent a subset of the variety you'd expect to see in New England/Atlantic Canada.

Fill your bird book as you unlock information about each species you discover! Learn more about the birds, and pick a good photo for the journal page.

Explore 5 hand-crafted environments based on the geography of New England and the Atlantic Maritimes. Each stop on your birding adventure will have its own story to tell. 

Relax with immersive ambient soundscapes and cozy music as you follow a gentle narrative told through changing scenes and quiet details. This game is a short, wholesome experience about finding peace and beauty in small moments.
