Overview
- Developed by Danish studio Pine Creek Games, the new release casts you as a mouse returning to repair a childhood burrow and search for a missing aunt.
- Early coverage highlights demanding mechanics such as managing body heat and hunger, limited navigation without a map, and large predators that can be toggled off.
- The presentation draws on storybook inspirations like The Wind in the Willows, Mouse Guard and Over the Garden Wall, pairing domestic crafting with high-stakes excursions.
- Hands-on impressions praise a digestible UI and warm touches like knitting gear in an armchair, while an XboxEra review flags sparse guidance and small, hard-to-read fonts.
- Reviewers note strong performance on Xbox Series X and describe exploration as tense and sometimes frustrating due to samey winter landscapes and no in-game map.
