Torn Away

During World War II, young Asya is separated from home and must make her way across Germany and Poland in hopes of reuniting with her family. The story follows her journey through the perspective of a child facing the hardships of war.

Players explore side-scrolling adventure levels, search for useful objects, solve small puzzles, and play through mini-games. Some sections shift to a cinematic first-person view.

Platforming sections include stealth mechanics: Asya must avoid soldiers and overcome obstacles in harsh weather. The game combines hand-drawn-style visuals with 3D environments and an original soundtrack.

Reviewers often praise the emotionally heavy story of a child enduring wartime hardship, along with the atmosphere, visual style, music, and voice acting. Some say the simple or slow-paced gameplay and short length leave them wanting more, while others criticize aspects of the historical or political framing.
