A Bird Story

I like that this one has no text, just left for interpretation. Admittedly, this fits better if you’ve already played or plan on playing Gau’s other title Finding Paradise but it’s just as thought provocative on its own. A nice short journey that still leaves you reflecting on the meaning of life if that is your thing you’ll enjoy this one just as much as the other Freebird titles.

I got cucked by a bird, fuck my birdless life

A story game. I bought it on discount admittedly because I wasn't sure I would like it. It's actually a great game for not having much of anything. That is, it's primarily and interactive story game. The mechanics are literal and was a touch refreshing that made it feel more like life, per se. Literal things such as waiting to cross the street or needing to turn off the light before going to bed. I kept expecting a horror story but it's much more endearing. Very touching. I recommend as a refreshing breather. Great job on this game. For so little, it's so much even with it being short. I took an hour to finish it.

Emotionally beautiful from a simplicity design.
Captivating soundtracks perfectly merged with excellent plot without any dialogues.
Chillaxing gameplay that you can play with a keyboard or a gamepad.

Short but meaningful.
Less is more.
Keep up the great work and thanks for reminding us to be kind and understanding from a species to another, Freebird.

just a bird story...






so much more

adorable little hidden gem

A super weird, boring, linear "game" where nothing happens.

Don't waste your time

Made me hungry for roast chicken......

A tiny interactive story with a touching plot. Definitely like Freebird Games!

I bought this game because I also used to have a bird that would came to my balcony injured. Sadly he didn't make it but this game made me emotional. Loved it.

A short and cute interactive animation strongly linked to Finding Paradise (some kind of prequel?). It just works, everything around us evolves as the imagination of our character does, making surreal and wholesome scenarios in the process. Can't say anything else since, well, it is really really short, but yeah, the storytelling is awesome, and both art and music help a lot.

A Bird Story is similar to To the Moon in every aspect except the story. It is a short but touching experience with a story that will stick with you. Worth the time and money if this is your sort of game.

Great little game to hold us over to the next installment

Why you should play this game:
- Title is accurate; it is a story that prominently features a bird
- Prequel to Finding Paradise in the To The Moon series
- Imaginative
- Short
- Good soundtrack
- No dialog means it's accessible across all languages

Why you shouldn't play this game:
- Walking simulator
- Sees no need to further explain itself (something that isn't entirely clarified in Finding Paradise)
- May come off a bit odd if one hasn't played any other games in the series

A Bird Story is a bittersweet short movie-like game that gives more depth to the story of Finding Paradise. As a standalone game the story may be a bit odd, but everything will make sense when you play Finding Paradise (or if you played that first, you will understand it just fine). The music is beautiful, the artstyle is lovely and the story is dreamy. It's a story about loneliness and friendship. I absolutely recommend this, like all the games from the To The Moon series.
