Ignore the Blackbird

As you observe the environment and interact with the blackbird, puzzles and a story emerge. Dialogues and puzzles reveal pieces of the narrative, gradually transforming the scene.

What begins as a beautiful summer day slowly fades into somber, surreal autumn.

Ignore the Blackbird is a handcrafted, narrative puzzle game. Its art and dialogue give a relaxing, thoughtful experience.

• The beginning of the Blackbird series
  Each game has a story to tell, but as we make more, they become chapters in a bigger whole.

  Pencils and true watercolour with traditional techniques on (many) layers of physical paper.
