About this game Read the full description


ETHEREAL is a profound experience (winner of the Audience Award on IGF 2019 where it was also nominated for its audio and sound design) where you have to find your way within an intricate and abstract series of levels, using different kinds of mechanics that allows you to modify the environment or the direction of your character movement. Each corner of its world has been carefully designed to communicate without any text and expose a novel puzzle to solve without time pressure, evoking an introspective state of mind.



KEY FEATURES

  • Beautiful minimalist and abstract art style
  • Awarded music and sound design
  • Non-verbal narrative
  • No time pressure, you can wander around as long as you want!
  • 4 different worlds to explore, each one with new mechanics, challenges and secrets!
  • 24 hand-crafted levels



Developed by Nicolás Recabarren and Tomás Batista, from Nonsense Arts, an indie game studio from Argentina.
