If this sounds familiar, that’s likely because it’s expanded froma game jam game Matt played in 2018. Now it’s looking a lot fancier and has that whole voiced story going on. At this point, I have no clue whether that story is going to be fun and silly or dark and deadly. Never can tell with squirrels.

I like how tacticle Nuts is. Pick up the phone. Press the buttons on your monitors. Click the switch on your printer. Feed photos into the fax machine. Pop papers up on the board. Some good bits of first-person fiddling there. While the demo ends soon after introducing the basics, I’m keen to see where it might go with future puzzles and plot.

Nuts is due to launchon Steamin 2021. For now, you can grab that demo from Steam and see moreon its website.

Disclosure: Jonatan Van Hove has done stuff for The Wild Rumpus, an events group I’m part of. I also know some of the team, I wouldn’t say well but I’m glad when I bump into them at some event once every five years?
