Have you ever had a job that was oddly soothing despite being a bit crummy? Perhaps a late-night shift at a convenience store where time seems to stretch into a liminal space? Now, imagine that job but as an anthropomorphic pig named Buu, tasked with delivering a package through the mysterious Forest of No Return. This is the premise of A Tiny Wander, a new 3D adventure game from Doukutsu Penguin Club, set to launch on PC in 2025, with a potential mobile release on the horizon.
In A Tiny Wander, you'll embark on a serene nighttime journey as Buu, navigating the enigmatic Forest of No Return to deliver a mysterious package. Along the way, Buu will set up camp, interact with other travelers, and even take breaks to offer them drinks. Amidst these interactions, Buu not only strives to complete his delivery but also seeks to uncover the identity of the mysterious master of the Moon Mansion.
A Walk in the Woods
The concept of A Tiny Wander might seem quirky at first glance, but it's far from a horror game like Doki Doki. Instead, Doukutsu Penguin Club aims to create a soothing, exploration-focused experience. While the game is confirmed for a 2025 release on Steam, the mobile version remains tentative. As we approach the holiday season, a relaxing game like this could be the perfect way to unwind.
