The Gardens Between - The Voxel Agents
The last few weeks have been incredibly exciting for the team behind ‘The Gardens Between’. We have been awarded MAC GAME OF THE YEAR and AUSTRALIAN GAME OF THE YEAR!



It is so incredible to be recognised for all of the effort we put in over the last four years of development. We are so touched by all of the support. Be it a tweet from a fan of the game or a big nod from Apple, our heart skips a beat. It’s as though there’s this momentary spark of personal connection with whoever we are hearing from. Like we are felt, understood, and we belong. As though you all know and own a piece of us, like a friendship, understated and subtle... just like our game :)

It’s such an unbelievable honour to have so many people loving the game, “someone pinch me, am I dreaming?” Especially since when we started The Voxel Agents TEN YEARS AGO (woah!) we were operating from a tiny corner of an office building, an old fire escape at the end of the hallway. We were right near the bathroom, practically in it. Everyone would have to walk past us to relieve themselves (the horror!).

From those awkward beginnings, so much has happened, so much has been achieved, but we are still as awkward as ever. I’m just hoping adorably so :P

The Gardens Between - The Voxel Agents
We're super excited to announce that The Gardens Between is coming to PlayStation®4 in 2018.

To celebrate, we have a brand new Gameplay Trailer on YouTube. Unless you've been lucky enough to play the game at PAX - this is the first time we've shown off the unique gameplay that defines The Gardens Between. In this game, you don’t control the characters; in this game, you control TIME.




I’m Matt, and at The Voxel Agents we’ve been working on this wild game idea for some time. Back in 2011, we had a concept for a game based on that scene in Minority Report where Tom Cruise is scrubbing backwards and forwards within a memory trying to uncover clues. We built several prototypes around the idea, and one of those prototypes blossomed into The Gardens Between.

The game follows two best friends, Arina and Frendt, who find themselves in this strange and surreal world of garden islands. As a player, you follow the pair and manipulate time to solve puzzles and uncover the gardens’ secrets. As you control time, moving it backwards and forwards, the characters can manipulate the world around them, changing the flow of cause and effect.



One of our driving principles during development was to build a game that anyone can play. We wanted The Gardens Between to have simple controls, to encourage stress-free exploration, and to tell a genuine story without text or dialogue. We strongly believe that games are for everyone, and The Gardens Between fits that perfectly.

At its core, the game is about exploring, but unlike most games, where you explore space, in The Gardens Between you explore time. In some ways this is simpler. On a timeline you can only move forwards and backwards, but time travel is full of its own complexities, and that’s where the puzzle elements come in.

At The Voxel Agents, we’re all about beautiful, simple, crafted experiences, he kind of games that we played growing up. It’s no coincidence that our game is packed full of 90s childhood nostalgia. We’re super excited to be launching The Gardens Between on PS4 next year, and we can’t wait for everyone to play it. We’ve poured our souls into The Gardens Between, and we think you’re going to absolutely love it!
