“Here is a short recap of the game:
Old Man’s Journey is a visual narrative about life’s precious moments, broken dreams, and changed plans.
The game entrenches you in a beautifully sunkissed and handcrafted world as you embark on a heartfelt journey interwoven with light puzzle solving.
Old Man’s Journey was initially released in May 2017 to much critical acclaim. Among others, it received the Apple Design Award 2017, Tokyo Game Show Sense of Wonder Night Best Art Award and Indiecade Europe Media Choice Award, etc.
History:
Built with intention, soul, honesty, and candor, the relatable story of Old Man’s Journey was designed to showcase universal truths that transcend across cultures and the many stages of life.
The team behind the game, Felix and Clemens of Broken Rules, were inspired to create the Old Man’s Journey upon struggling to find balance in their own lives between family, career, and following their dreams.
A concept that emotionally connected with them and they believed would resonate with many, they sought out to take players on a heartfelt experience of reflection, told through the touching life story of an old man.
They’ve worked tirelessly to combine the rich, handcrafted world, inquisitive puzzles, and heartfelt narrative of the old man’s unfulfilled promises and realized dreams into what they believe is a timelessly relatable experience.
We are very excited to get our game into the hands of Nintendo Switch owners and are looking forward to read, see and hear what you think of it.
