Tom the Postgirl

Tom the Postgirl is a hand-drawn narrative adventure about Tom, a mischievous postgirl whose delivery rounds through a strange village often go awry. As she delivers packages, you can peek into residents’ homes to uncover their secrets and decide whether to focus on your work or disrupt public order.

The village and its secrets

Every resident seems to have something to hide. You can spy through windows, doors and cracks in the walls, finding disturbing situations among the village’s inhabitants: an orphanage that looks more like a kennel, two party-loving priests and chainsaw-wielding hippies. The village’s oddities extend beyond its people, with drug-dealing pigeons in the cemetery, a wandering cowboy worm and a grumpy squirrel.

Deliveries and mischief

You explore hand-drawn scenes and search for hiding spots from which to watch the residents. You can open their packages, cut down trimmed hedges, trample garden flowers or steal decorations. The game’s frame-by-frame animation gives its world a retro feel, while its calm black-and-white visuals contrast with the unsettling behavior of the villagers.

Secrets to uncover

Each playthrough can reveal details you missed before, and you can try more or less cautious approaches to discover the villagers’ secrets. The story leads through outrageous and zany events as Tom’s deliveries take her further into the village’s mysteries.
