About

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be an old man sitting on a park bench? What does he do all day, sitting there with his newspaper, lost in thought, as time drifts by?
With a walking stick in hand, an endless supply of bread (and plenty of comfortable benches), you’ll explore a colorful world full of puzzles, hidden objects, and of course… pigeons!
Throughout your adventure, you’ll lead an ever-growing flock of adorable, customizable pigeons that will follow your every command: make them steal useful items, help you solve puzzles, or simply keep you company while you fish, doodle, or nap. In The Bench, pigeons are your best friends.
Play harmless pranks on park visitors and maintenance staff, disrupt picnics and parties, toss passersby into the air, and interact with the world around you however you like! The world outside the retirement home is full of life and color, and as you carry on your escape, memories of a life once lived as an agent resurface, reminders that you’re far from being just a simple retiree.
Explore beautifully designed, colorful maps, each with its own quirks, and dive into fun mini-games: solve puzzles, doodle in your notebook, play chess, bowls, football, or go fishing. There’s always something to keep your mind sharp, and stop you from dozing off.
Perfect for fans of puzzles, hidden objects, and adventure games, The Bench is a delightful blend of relaxation and challenge, with a touch of wholesome humor. The game also features a list of unique Twitch integrations to discover.

[h1]おじいちゃんとハトの逃避行?[/h1] どうやら老人ホームで出される薬は信用ならないらしい。 黒衣の鳩男がそう告げる。 かくしておじいちゃんとハトの冒険が始まる。 あなたは真実にたどり着けるか? [h3]ベンチ×ハト=[/h3] このゲームたらしめる特徴にして魅力。 類を見ない2つの要素をつかうパズルADVです。 おじいちゃんは歩けないので、ハトを使ってベンチ間を移動する。 ハトはただ可愛いだけでなく、道中で入手した物品を装備します。 装備持ちのハトを投げると様々なリアクションが! 例)レンガ持ちのハトを投げると公共物を破壊できる クリアまで7時間くらいだった気がします。 残りは謎と向き合った時間です。 個人的にはキーボード&マウス操作を推奨。 [h3]散らばる数々の謎[/h3] いたる所に謎が点在してます。 ・放置された金庫 ・お題に沿った写真撮影 ・特別なアクションをすると貰える切手 ・何やら困ってそうな住人たち ・手持ちの新聞を開くと… 脳トレみたいなお洒落なパズルがたくさんあります。 もちろんハトを使った謎も。 金庫のヒントに関するヒント [spoiler]金庫のヒントはすぐ近くにあります、例外なく。前のステージに戻る必要とかはないです。[/spoiler] [h3]アップデートがあったよ[/h3] バグは改善され、取得できなかった切手も手に入るようになりました。 しかしまだ残ってる手触りです。 開発者はフィードバックを受けまくってるので、気付いたのがあれば送りましょう。 タイトル画面からも可能です。 そして新たな謎が追加されました。やったぜ! ベンチの追加や新ロケーションだってある。 加えて、操作感やアイテム使用時の挙動も改善されてます。 これは挑戦するしかないでしょう。 [h3]最後の謎が解け[strike]ない[/strike][b]た[/b]![/h3] 写真は諦めた。魚は1種類だけ見つからない。 しかしダイヤルだけは開けたい! [strike]おそらくこれが最後であろうダイヤルの番号が分からない! ヒントは目の前にあるのに~。 ということで、たまに起動しては悶々してます。[/strike] っしゃああああ!開けたぞぉぉおおお!!! ヒントの意味は素晴らしい。しかし解答に至るまでのロジックが気に入らぬ~
pigeon is life, I love pigeons, good game for pigeons
Your bound to have a great time!
Very unique and interesting concept for a puzzle game. Clever and enjoyable!
Absolutely wonderful puzzle game with great ideas. Nothing too challenging in the main quests and for people who like more there are optional puzzles that are harder but very enjoyable and creative. Kudos to the whole team - sound and music, art & animations - all really well done. Looking forward to the next game of this dev as well!
Fantastic cozy puzzle game!
A fun escape room style adventure with an intersting mechanic of pigeon-mancy.
Wonderful
Absolutely lovely game! Fun, not too difficult, but it offers a good challenge, especially if you want to go for all the stamps. The grafic is simple but perfect for this kind of game. My sister and I tried it at the MGW '25 and decided to buy it. Thank you for the golden pigeon whistle!
Super abwechslungsreiches Spiel! Die verschiedenen Mechaniken und die Story haben mir sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Ich möchte nicht zu viel spoilern :) Das Spiel lohnt sich auf jeden Fall! Mir hat es sehr sehr viel Spaß gemacht :)
