The Lost Lunch

The Lost Lunch is a first-person environmental puzzle game where you play as a mother squirrel climbing The Great Tree on an important mission; returning a lunch her child accidentally left behind.

Progress is gained through observation, reasoning, and understanding how each environment interacts with its puzzles. As you climb higher, new mechanics are introduced and gradually expanded upon, asking you to apply what you’ve learned in increasingly complex ways.

There are no enemies, timers, or combat systems. Only you, the environment, and the challenge of the puzzles. Players are free to play at their own pace, experiment with solutions, and use optional hints whenever they feel stuck.

Your goal is simple: ascend the tree, master each new puzzle concept, and give your son their lunch!
