Tips!
Looking for all 100 trivia cards?
Leaving unanswered questions means cards stop spawning. They spawn after a real-time delay of being in an area. If you run around looking, they will not spawn since the timer resets every time you visit the area.
One year since we released the Delores mini-adventure. We would do a discount, but 50% off free-a-reno is still free-a-who! If you missed it, today's a good day to give it a try.

Ah, Melee Island, it's good to see you again. We storyboarded every cutscene, close-up shot, and complex scripted sequence, so we could play the game with placeholder animatics and get a feel for the timings and framing before doing all the final art and tricky scripting. ๐๏ธ
