The Cub is a beautifully crafted adventure platformer set in a hauntingly poetic post-apocalyptic world. Inspired by classic animated films and environmental storytelling, the game follows a young child surviving among the ruins of humanity while nature and wildlife reclaim the planet. As you explore abandoned megastructures, overgrown cities, and desolate landscapes, the story unfolds subtly through visuals, radio broadcasts, and environmental details rather than direct dialogue.
Gameplay focuses on smooth platforming, light puzzles, and careful exploration, emphasizing atmosphere over combat. Hand-drawn visuals, fluid animations, and an evocative soundtrack create an emotional journey that feels both melancholic and hopeful. On Windows, The Cub offers a thoughtful, immersive experience for players who enjoy narrative-driven games with artistic presentation and a strong sense of mood.
