Steam drops 'short and sweet' free game that's proving a hit

If you’re looking for something free to play that’s both short and sweet, just like Sabrina Carpenter, then it’s Little Luna that I’d like to direct your attention towards.

Developed and published by Possumo, this indie puzzle-platfomer is proving a hit with players and as I teased, it’s totally free to enjoy.

In Little Luna, you’ll assume the role of a moth who has fallen deep underground.

As I’m sure you’re aware, moths are drawn to the light.

“Guided by the mysterious power of Luna - a lost goddess of lunar light - you must navigate treacherous terrain, solve intricate puzzles, and find your way back to the world above,” reads the game’s synopsis.

You won’t simply be guided by Luna though. You’ll need to “harness” her power if you truly want to escape the darkness.

ICYMI: Split Fiction is out now and it’s the year’s highest-rated game so far.

As cosy as Little Luna looks, I don’t think it’ll exactly be an ultra relaxing experience.

The devs tease that “logic and quick thinking become your greatest allies,” so I imagine that you’ll need to remain attentive.

Lunar blocks are essentially what you’ll use to traverse each level but these can move and reshape, altering the layout of a level before your very eyes.

Already, Little Luna has a Positive review score of 90% over on Steam.

“Every challenge is clever and rewarding, keeping you engaged without frustration,” one user wrote. “A luminous puzzle-platformer that’s as stunning as it is smart.”

“Such a cute cosy game that I only wish was longer! Some of the puzzles I had to properly think about and the art is gorgeous! Amazing,” added another.

“Nice game for a single evening,” one player remarked.

“Short but sweet,” read a review.

As you can see, praise isn’t hard to come by. I’m sold.

In fact, the download is ticking away as we speak. That’s tonight’s entertainment sorted.
