Unravel - Sympathetic puzzle food from Scandinavia

Unravel was the first title to be released through Electronic Arts' Indie label. You can snag a cheap key over at Keyfuchs.

At first glance, Unravel looks like a two-dimensional adventure with an incredibly sympathetic look, which is inspired by successful titles like Yoshi's Woolly World or LittleBigPlanet and scores above all with its charming look. However, in terms of gameplay, we are dealing with a classic puzzle-platformer in the style of a Limbo, which has been provided with a balanced mix of dexterity and physics-based puzzles.

The completely wool-based protagonist Yarny is one of the special features, whose physical properties have been interwoven with the gameplay of Unravel. For example, the wool of Yarny can be turned into lassos, ropes or grappling hooks with which the sympathetic protagonist clears his way through the varied levels and solves the numerous puzzles that lie before him. At the same time, the wool of Yarny can be used to create trampolines or bridges. In this way, the little hero is able to overcome abysses or climb particularly high areas that would otherwise be inaccessible.

The player does not have an infinite amount of yarn available. Instead, the wool rolls up again after a certain length, so that it must be checked regularly that the yarn does not run out when solving the puzzles. The story of Unravel begins in a house where an old woman lives who looks lonely and bitter. When she reaches for her yarn, a ball slips out of her hand and suddenly the protagonist Yarny emerges.

Yarny's task is now to bring the old woman back to her memories and make her life more beautiful. Yarny makes his way through the grandmother's house and arrives at her memories through pictures. The task there is to collect small red yarn figures with which the old woman's photo album is filled. The story deals with both beautiful moments like family outings and tragic events like the loss of relatives.
