What players say
Got this game while on sale, and it's quite a good, short but sweet The story is about the experiences of 4 characters going on a camping trip, Brad and Cloanne (married, has a lot of experience camping), and Mord and Ben (best friends who recently coupled with Mord's initiative, doesn't camp much) In the game we take turns controlling the characters, and we can interact with the other characters or the environment...

Wide Ocean Big Jacket feels like being invited into a small fragment of someone's life. Just like Ben says, it feels like "a tiny little life." It made me laugh, it made me feel tender, and it made me care about its characters in such a short time. Turnfollow always finds something special in moments like this, and this game left me with a really warm feeling. Very Wes Anderson in the best way. Wide Ocean Big Jacket...
A short and simple game about a camping trip, buts packs a punch with its real & intimate conversations, cozy vibes, and zany humor. There is also a small side story told from the parker ranger's perspective that is also just as good!
