About This Game

Miniatures: An art house game collection

Play four hand-drawn memories from childhood and explore the strangeness and unease hiding beneath familiar moments. Some stories are mysterious, others whimsical, and all are a bit experimental. Each story is supported by its own unique art style and soundscape. 

Pick an object and play the personal story behind it.  

Short: 30-40 minutes of playtime
