About
Play four hand-drawn memories from childhood and explore the strangeness and unease hiding beneath familiar moments. Some stories are mysterious, others whimsical, and all are a bit experimental. Each story is supported by its own unique art style and soundscape.
A short, open-to-interpretation experience with a total playtime of about 30–40 minutes.
Open up an old wooden box and discover four different objects: a screwdriver, a lizard, a seashell and a moth. Each one has its own story to tell:
🪛 Familiar
Assemble a curious cabinet together with your family. It is not as easy, as it seems.
🦎 The Paludarium
Take care of your pet lizard while nature slowly creeps in.
🦋 The House of the Moon
Search for the moon in a dark seascape.
🐚 The Last Sand Castle
Help the music-loving inhabitants of a sand castle.
Miniatures is an atmospheric and slightly unsettling experience for players who enjoy narrative experimentation, stylised visuals and subtle, but poignant storytelling. It features:
Hand-drawn and award-winning art with a picture book aesthetic
Short and impactful stories that are emotional and open to interpretation.
Atmospheric and ambient soundscapes
Simple and easy interactions: point, click and explore.
Follow the moon, feed the lizard, and discover surreal childhood memories, where the familiar turns mysterious and strange.

An extremely short little game, but the music and atmosphere is amazing, the art is beautiful and perhaps a little unsettling at times.
J'ai bien aimé ce jeu et ses 4 petites histoires aux directions artistiques différentes et similaires en même temps. Je les ai dégustées comme des bonbons, une par-ci une par-là, elles avaient un drôle de goût, une ambiance onirique et oppressante, et elles m'ont donné à réfléchir. Je ne les oublierai pas de sitôt, merci pour ce jeu.
a delightful little experience. the sandcastle chapter especially is wonderful, but they're all full of tiny little details that are only highlighted by the minimalist artwork. gorgeous, cute, fun, and a bit sad, as well.
peak, interactive, beautiful graphics
very nice
👌
stunning game
:)
Ta bien bonito, recomiendo
Like playing a Dave McKean book. Strange and wondrous imagery that leaves you with an overwhelming sadness in the end. Art and poetry can be gamified, it looks like this.
