Curio

About The Game

Curio is a 2D puzzle platformer where you play as a stuffed bear on his journey in escaping an antique store! 

Feeling lonely and abandoned after so many years, Bear's desire for freedom and exploring what awaits outside his little nook grows greater with each passing day, however, there is one problem: he's tiny! Equipped with a key that's twice his size and having lost the ability to jump, help Bear make their way through the many different obstacles of past and present making up the antique store as he ventures for the unknown.
