The Little Acre is a heart-warming, story-led adventure featuring hand-drawn animation, full voice acting, and a beautiful original score.

Inspired by the marvels of classic Don Bluth animation (All Dogs Go to Heaven) and the magical wonder of a Miyazaki world, the game is set in 1950s Ireland and follows the story of Aidan and his young daughter, Lily. Investigating the sudden disappearance of his father, Aidan finds himself transported to a strange new land populated by bizarre creatures. Things are made slightly more difficult when young Lily decides that she is going to “help” and encounters her own perils along the way.

“Now the game is releasing, we can’t wait to see how people respond to The Little Acre,” says Ben Clavin, Co-Founder of Pewter Games. “The feedback we’ve received throughout development has been enormously positive – and now it’s out there.”

“We’ve put our heart and soul into creating The Little Acre, so we’re absolutely thrilled to see it up in stores,” adds Chris Conlan, Co-Founder of Pewter Games. “While we know it’s going to appeal to fans of adventure games, we’re really looking forward to welcoming new players to the genre.”

“The Little Acre is a game I would have been proud to have created myself,” concludes Charles Cecil. “To be able to play a small part in it has been enormously rewarding. I hope this prompts a real resurgence in the genre’s popularity, inspiring more teams to write equally wonderful stories.”
