"Sunset Hills: A Novelistic Puzzle on a Dog Veteran's Travels"

Sunset Hills, the latest puzzle game from Cottongame, creators of Reviver and Mr. Pumpkin Adventure, invites players into a captivating world painted in soft pastel colors. Set against the backdrop of an old city filled with vintage architecture and endearing humanoid dogs, the game weaves heartwarming narratives that resonate deeply with its audience.

Accompany Nico, a War Veteran, in His Journey

In Sunset Hills, you step into the shoes of Nico Grant, a novelist and war veteran. The story unfolds in June 794, as Nico embarks on a poignant train journey to reconnect with his former comrades, Ferruccio, Doug, and Roy, seven years after the war's end. Driven by an inner need to rekindle old bonds, Nico's journey is both literal and emotional.

As a child, Nico was introverted, preferring the company of books over people, often lost in his vivid imagination. The war forced him into a harsh reality where his small stature and uniqueness made him a target for bullying. Yet, through adversity, Nico found solace in writing, using a small notebook as his emotional outlet. This notebook not only helped him cope but also became the unexpected bridge to deep friendships with his squadmates, friendships that endured beyond the war.

Now a published writer, Nico's travels take him across various cities and countries by train. Each stop presents new moments and puzzles to solve, immersing players in Nico's ongoing journey of healing and discovery.
