The game....
Eppi, designed by Felicitas Pommerening and illustrated by Andy Elkerton and Klemens Franz, is an innovative adventure game in book form that brings families together for a whimsical and interactive experience. Published by Lookout Games, it combines storytelling, problem-solving, and tactile gameplay into a package that’s accessible, replayable, and endlessly charming.
🎲 Gameplay and Mechanics
At its core, Eppi is a point-and-click-inspired adventure game. Players embark on a journey as Eppi, a mysterious creature dwelling in the basement, and interact with a series of puzzles and riddles woven into a quirky, family-driven narrative. Each chapter introduces different characters, such as the curious baby Manni and the sharp-minded Grandma Tara, each contributing a unique perspective to the story.
The game blends the narrative depth of a children’s book with the interactivity of a puzzle game. It includes:
- Puzzle Cards: These provide a tactile, hands-on approach to problem-solving.
- Stickers: Used to track progress, they can be easily removed to reset the game for future plays or sharing.
- Replayability: The resettable components make it ideal for passing on to friends or replaying with younger siblings as they grow into it.
👨👩👧👦Target Audience
While Eppi is primarily designed as a family game, it has broad appeal. It’s perfect for parents and kids to play together, offering a mix of simple challenges for younger players and more thought-provoking puzzles for adults. Its lighthearted tone and easy-to-grasp mechanics make it an excellent choice for families with children aged 4 and up.
🧩 Production Quality
