Moomintroll wakes up too early

The story begins with an unusually long winter.Moomintroll emerges from hibernation before the others and discovers that spring has not come.The family continues to sleep, Snusmumrik has not yet returned, and the valley remains under the snow.

The hero's goal is to understand why the season does not change, to help the inhabitants of the valley and gradually bring the arrival of spring closer.

Instead of combat - exploration and puzzles

Hyper Games describes the game as a cozy and slightly melancholy adventure.The basis of the passage is the exploration of snowy locations, conversations with characters and puzzles related to the environment.

Winter’s Warmth continues the approach of the studio’s previous game: the familiar literary world is used not as a backdrop for action, but as a space for a calm journey and small stories.Release on PS5 will take place September 18.
