About the Game
Strap on your backpack! Hike, jump, and climb through charming mini-games to traverse a rugged landscape and help the old islanders with their deliveries. All while managing a backpack that's always a little too small!
Key Features
- Run around the island and deliver everything from regular parcels to peculiar oddities. Manage your inventory and be careful not to damage anything!
- Get to know the islanders. They might be reserved in the presence of strangers, but help them enough, and they might open up and help you in return.
- Move by running, jumping, climbing and balancing over rivers and creeks. The heavier your backpack, the harder it gets to tackle these obstacles.
- Experience Clifford's Island's mysteries, a search for things you might not want to find, and the pull for a quieter life in a fast and loud world.
