INTRODUCING: The Birdwatcher's Journal🐦
Photograph and identify birds on a mysterious island. Each bird you discover brings you one step closer to uncovering what happened to the researcher before you, and the secrets of the island.

✨You've been hired! ✨
In addition to birdwatching, there'll be plenty of puzzling to do on the island, with strange runes and ruins to discover. We've been working hard to build our weird island for you to explore 👀

THIS WEEKEND at ACMI! Come play some of the coolest games from Australia and Aotearoa NZ 🎮
We're showcasing 20 games (!!!) across the weekend as part of ACMI's free Game Showcase exhibition. If you're in Melbourne, swing by and play some incredible games!
Those little notes and clue pieces you pick up in games, can tell a lot about the game's setting and tone.
We've been sprucing up our designs for notes and things you can pick up whilst you're birdwatching in our game, with more to come!

Evil corporations, weird birds and even weirder island... 👀 Being a birdwatcher is no easy task in our birdwatching puzzle game, especially when the previous researcher quit suddenly.
