A Bird Story is a simple, surreal short about a boy and a bird with a broken wing. Its sole purpose is to tell a story, and can be viewed as a narrative/animation with interactivity -- but without a line of dialogue. It is a standalone game with its own beginning and endings; but for those who's played To the Moon, the boy eventually grows up to become the next patient in the series.
Released 7 November 2014 for Mac, Linux, PC (Microsoft Windows) and Nintendo Switch by Freebird Games, published by Serenity Forge. Rated E by ESRB. About 1 hours to beat, 2 hours for everything.
