Cuddly and tricky

As cuddly as Sadwick and Spot are, the puzzles in the game are so tricky. Spot can solve a few puzzles. This can take a variety of forms and is a wonderful mascot. For some puzzles a little trial and error is necessary.

The copy protection variant

The Whispered World has a special copy protection system for players who do not buy it on Steam, for example. There are 3 colored runic dice that have to be put into the correct position in a mini-game at the beginning. There is also a board game template on the back of a poster.

The Whispered World is a fantastic adventure by Studio Daedalic. The characters are memorable and sympathetic. Especially the mascot Spot and the melancholy of Sadwick makes you feel empathic. The story has interesting twists, the puzzles are crisp and graphics and sound are just coherent. If you did not play the Whispered World, you missed something.
