About This Game

A nail. A pile. A simple task.
Find the Golden Nail.
How hard could it be?

QUEST FOR THE GOLDEN NAIL

Quest for the Golden Nail is a physics-driven sandbox about finding one very important thing among far too many ordinary things.

Pick up nails. Inspect them. Sort them. Throw them somewhere you will almost certainly regret later. Work your way through increasingly unreasonable piles, unlock upgrades and improve your approach to a task that sounded perfectly manageable a moment ago.

A narrator accompanies your efforts. He has a great deal to say about them.

FEATURES

• Thousands upon thousands upon thousands of nails.
  Pick them up, throw them, drop them and stash them. Somewhere among all these ordinary nails is the one you came for.

• One Golden Nail.
  It really is in there. Somewhere. This information may become less reassuring as the pile gets bigger.

• A tactile physics sandbox.
  Dig through the pile, make room, scatter nails across the floor and discover the practical consequences of your own methods.

• Sort. Order. Or not.
  Carefully inspect and sort your finds, or throw everything about with considerable confidence. Your choice, your pile.

• A narrator who believes in you.

  Your progress, your experiments and your occasional distractions are met with unbridled enthusiasm, heartfelt applause and wholehearted support. Someone is absolutely delighted that you’re here.

• Increasingly unreasonable piles.
  Unlock upgrades, handle more nails and take on bigger searches. Apparently, that counts as progress.

• No rush.
  Take your time. Develop a system. Reconsider the system. The nails have no other appointments.

• One very simple objective.
  Find the Golden Nail. I think we covered this.

Now go and nail it!
