Awards and Recognition: • Unity Awards: Best Overall Design • Unity Awards: Best Visual Design • IGF Finalist in Excellence in Visual Arts • Fantastic Arcade Spotlight • Fantastic Arcade Audience Award 2nd Place • GDC Best in Play • Swiss Games Selection • Alexander Clavel Foundation – Culture Award • SGDA –Swiss Game Award “RECOMMENDED: There's a purity of vision in its savage scenarios.” - EuroGamer “The most brutal thing about Feist is how desperate its encounters are: they’re protracted, stressful, improvised fights to the death. Feist is remarkably tense for a platformer. The world’s tension is heightened by the music: a quiet, forlorn ambience shrouding the woods of Feist in a supernatural melancholy. There are moments of startling beauty in Feist.” - PC Gamer “Feist looks phenomenal. The look, described as "a cinematic physical-effects style reminiscent of Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal, or Hedgehog in the Fog," is brilliant. Some of the best game art I've seen.” - Destructoid "Handmade like an Aston Martin, imagined as art, loved as a child. Feist almost never reveals itself as a game while you’re playing it, which is an absolute triumph today." – Clickindie "A fine magical tone to the world." – Rock Paper Shotgun Key Features: • A desperate and merciless fight for survival • A striking visual style • A rich and vivid world full of strange beasts • A dynamic gameplay.

AVOLTEHA The extraordinary planet where Paul embarks on his greatest adventure. Avolteha is covered by landscapes full of sand, rock and volcanoes. One element you look for in vain here. Water - the source of all life. The only water is found in the clouds that pass over Avolteha. The only way to get this precious commodity is a type of mushroom that can extract the water. The inhabitants of Avolteha therefore began many years ago to build their settlement around those mushrooms. Over time, however, the mushrooms began to sprout their roots higher and higher. To restore the water supply, Paul and his friends built a connection from the new cloud city downwards. In the meantime, Paul no longer lives in the city. Now, however, he received a letter. His friends needed his help. The water source had gone out once again. What happened? Paul's greatest adventure is ahead of him. The great riddle of Avolteha is waiting for him and wants to be solved. It must be solved - for the good of all the inhabitants of this wonderful planet. ABOUT THE GAME Avolteha is a classic point & click adventure game for the whole family. GAME CONTROLS Paul can easily pocket items along the way and take them with him on his journey.
