Plot
You play as one of the creatures in a mysterious forest, where at first, everything seems normal, but there is something wrong about it. Towards the end of Day 1-Dawn, (Sofía soy la nena de la llamada booooo) a mysterious machine appears, which when lighted up kills all the creatures shown on the screen. With that, the game progresses onto noon. Then, at the end of Day 1-Noon, the machine appears again, at the break of dusk. This time, the light is more powerful. At the end of Day 1-Dusk, a egg-looking object appears, with three small lights, which when the main character passes by, switch on by itself. Then, at the end of Day 1-Night, the forest suddenly turns red, and the main character is sucked into a huge red portal, similar to the portal at the start of the game. After this, the machine appears again, this time made more evil by the red background.
Reception
The game won Apple Inc.'s 2013 iPad Game of the Year award.[3] It also won the Grand Prix award in the 9th annual International Mobile Gaming Awards.[4]
