Animal Well

Animal Well is a nonlinear exploration game in which you hatch from a flower and explore a dense, atmospheric world full of secrets. You encounter lively creatures, both helpful and ominous, and uncover unconventional upgrades as you unravel the well’s mysteries. The experience focuses on tension and suspense rather than action, and asks you to judge for yourself what is safe or dangerous.

Explore the well

You can explore and collect items in any order. Lighting candles provides safety and gradually fills out your map, while seemingly insignificant details can become meaningful as you learn more about the world. The main game also contains hidden puzzles for players to discover.

Use your surroundings

You are disempowered, but can make clever use of your environment and items. Enemies, objects and the environment interact in systemic ways, and every item has multiple uses.
