Set during World War I, the story follows four strangers caught on different sides of the conflict as their lives become intertwined. Players take the role of each character as they try to survive the war and help a young German soldier find his love, accompanied by a faithful dog.
Explore side-scrolling environments and solve puzzles by finding and using objects. The adventure also includes action sequences and moments of sneaking past enemy troops as the characters move through trenches, fields, and other wartime settings.
The dog can use its sense of smell and pass through gaps people cannot, helping solve puzzles and avoid enemies. Players can also find historical objects and read information about World War I events and life during the conflict.
In the supplied reviews, players often praise the human-focused story and its interwoven characters, saying it makes the costs of war feel personal. They also appreciate the hand-drawn comic-book presentation, music, and historical notes and collectibles. Puzzles are commonly described as simple and supportive of the story, though some reviewers find them repetitive or unclear.
