Love the idea! It feels a bit inaccurate for this to be classified as a game; I would deem it to be more of an interactive story. It's a super interesting and innovative medium! It's something I could see being used in museums or classrooms. I would loved to have learn a bit more about where this takes place and like to see resources incorporated at the end to talk about learning more or how you can donate clean drinking water, resources, etc. Overall, very happy to have gone through experience!

Great game for a learning experience. Some of the controls didn't really work that great, like throwing a rock at the hyeenas. I tried quite a few times to no avail. So I had to skip the scene. Well written true story, which is sad that other countries don't have simple access to a basic need, water. Her story was hardship, true, it's exhaustive seeking water, and also dangerous. I completesd it in 1 day, but I learned alot in that 1.5 hours. All in all, great job. P.s. NO ADS!!! A+ ON THAT!!

Very basic platform game with a story. Given all the effort put into then background aesthetics, its a shame they didn't make this into a more dynamic game. Basically it is just moving in one direction while you are told a story... then moving in the other direction as they tell a story. I know its for education, but it would do a better job if there was a bit more to it. Hopefully they expand it, as the basic concept is good.
