Neversong

Peet wakes from a coma to discover his girlfriend is missing. He sets out through a surreal, dreamlike world to investigate what happened, encountering strange children, violent grown-ups, and clues about his past.

Explore illustrated areas, talk with Peet’s childhood friends, solve environmental and timed puzzles, and face monsters and bosses. Platforming includes jumping and swinging from vines, while Peet’s baseball bat is his main weapon.

Defeating bosses earns musical melodies that Peet plays on a piano to unlock new abilities and reach further areas. These movement tools open routes through the world as the search for his girlfriend continues.

Players who enjoy Neversong often point to its hand-drawn look, eerie fairytale atmosphere, memorable music, and intriguing story. Some also praise its puzzles, boss fights, and responsive movement. Other reviews find the platforming or controls frustrating, the gameplay repetitive or simple, and parts of the story difficult to follow.
