Wanderment

November 13, 2015 11:25 AM

Wanderment is a game that lets you play as a lost kitten looking for your kitten friend. The twist: you, the kitten, are completely blind. Instead of navigating by sight, you must navigate by sound and smell to find your way around your environment and track down your friend.

what? no. I got tears in my eyes from reading the description.

No, it's not sad, I swear! It's a happy game, the kitten doesn't care about being blind! It represents scents visually in an interesting way!

_{No lie, I may be adopting a blind kitten soon and found it in my quest to find more relevant to planning how to make my house blind-cat-friendly...}

I have to go with desjardins there.

I will play it if you assure me first that the kittens are going to be all right!

I would play it if the damn game would stop telling me it can't run in this version of Chrome (I'm using Opera).

That was a much nicer ending than I expected.

Oh Gods. I can't click on it, lest I burst with feels. I'll take your word for it that it's a happy game, and just imagine the blind kitty safe and sound.

Now I want to go turn my house into a blind kitty sanctuary, thanks a lot

This was amazing and fun and yes, absolutely has a happy ending.

It is a cheerful and colorful game and no harm can come to any kittens (the worst possible situation is that you fall off the map and get teleported back onto safe ground).
