Blanc - A HEARTWARMING Game About Two UNLIKELY Friends

Blanc is an interesting game that just came out on Windows and Nintendo Switch. Play as both a baby wolf and baby deer as they find their ways back home and become friends along the way. Gameplay wise you can either play this by yourself, or with a friend. The game recommends you play with a controller and I also recommend you play with one too, as the keyboard controls are pretty poor, they can be changed but it's not an easy task to do so.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it! Just don’t go in expecting something hardcore or super-challenging. Blanc is a gorgeous game that uses a lovely black-and-white art style to tell the story of two unlikely friends: a pitch-black wolf cub and a snowy white fawn. Whether playing co-op or controlling both creatures solo, these two must work together solving simple puzzles and building a bond that had me letting out an audible “awwww” over and over.

Night in the Woods invites players into the enchanting yet melancholic universe of Possum Springs, where anthropomorphic characters navigate the challenges of adulthood against a backdrop of small-town life. Developed by Infinite Fall, this indie gem is a narrative-driven adventure that beautifully captures the essence of growing up and the complexities of returning to one's roots. Visually, Night in the Woods is a feast for the eyes. The hand-drawn art style creates a dreamlike world that seamlessly combines the mundane with the surreal. The characters, from the feline protagonist Mae to her quirky friends, are expressive, conveying a range of emotions that anchor the game's narrative.
