Kickstarter’s Whispering Willows brings Mystery Action Puzzler to OUYA [VIDEO]
March 28th - via: phandroid.com
The Whispering Willows concept seems great: the further you get into the game, the more the story unfolds, and the deeper you dive into the narrative. Your character is Elena and your goal is to save your father. At the beginning of the game, you learn that you’re able to astrally project your inner-self, allowing your “ghost” form to travel in interesting ways and perform tasks that you couldn’t do in your human form. By helping ghosts and solving puzzles, you learn more about the Willows mansion (the game’s setting) and gradually move towards saving your father’s life. You’re essentially a ghost whisperer.
