About this game

This game was created as my version of a love letter to my partner.

Follow the story of Ted as he navigates the abandoned town of Ruddleside amidst the post apocalypse, finding a solitary companion in Diego.

Your choices determine whether Diego will bond with Ted and help him continue his search for surviving communities, or whether the pair will face difficulties and challenges that put them at odds with each other whilst trying to escape the horrors within Ruddleside.

Gameplay:

• Explore Stylized 3D Environments: Navigate the atmospheric setting of Ruddleside.

• Solve Puzzles and Find Collectibles: Uncover the town's mysteries through various puzzles and collectibles.

• Shape Ted's Destiny: Make decisions that influence Ted's personality and determine his fate.

*Best optimised for Android devices with 4gb of Ram or more. Lower-end devices may have technical issues, leading to a less than preferable experience, or may not support the game at all.


The game has been fully ported over from PC to mobile, and includes controller support and 4 additional subtitle languages, including Spanish, French, Polish and Russian.

Ratings and reviews

good things come to those who wait and waiting is the hardest part I haven't even been able to get past the title screen without constant freezing and stuttering, I would love to play this game as much as I heard about it. but unfortunately with these issues it's unplayable. for one I don't want to play on my tiny phone screen I'll cast it to my t.v with zero luck. same freezing issue but is a constant no... for casting your screen with this game.

I really fell in love with this game after seeing playthroughs of it and wanted to play it myself since many YouTubers picked choices I didn't entirely like. Let's just say it's been rough! I've run into a few bugs where the scenes would glitch and freeze the entire game or send me to a frozen picture of a previous clip. I really love this game, I do, but the bugs are not allowing me to finish without having to restart the app several times..😢

I'd like to play the game but it freezes every time the truck crashes, making it impossible to move further into the story. I watched YouTubers play it and got interested in the choices they didn't make but it doesn't seem like I'll be able to find out. Edit: After figuring out to force stop the game I am able to continue.
