You play as Ravengirl, a young bird trying to escape a vast city built on oppression and strict social hierarchy. The monochrome world is populated by animal groups and dominated by watchful authorities.
Move through the city by running and jumping across precarious structures, avoiding guards and dangerous machinery, and interacting with objects and levers. Light environmental puzzles break up the platforming; there is little emphasis on combat.
The journey passes through the city's varied levels and unfolds largely through scenery, signs, and cinematic sequences rather than dialogue. Environmental details and staged scenes reveal the dystopian setting as Ravengirl presses on.
Players who enjoyed the game often praised its stark black-and-white environments, oppressive atmosphere, and use of classical music, as well as its visual storytelling and social themes. Some also liked its short, approachable platforming. Critical reviews often found the gameplay too slight or the controls awkward, and some felt the story or ending was unclear.
