Ignore the Blackbird is a handcrafted, narrative puzzle game, illustrated in layers of traditional watercolours. Solve relaxing puzzles to uncover a story waiting to be pieced together, and watch the scene gradually shift. What could it all mean?

As you observe the environment and interact with the blackbird, puzzles and a story emerge. Dialogues and puzzles reveal pieces of the narrative, gradually transforming the scene. What begins as a beautiful summer day slowly fades into somber, surreal autumn. Ignore the Blackbird is a handcrafted, narrative puzzle game. Its art and dialogue give a relaxing, thoughtful experience. If you enjoy the game, please join our Discord to share your theories on what happened to Sonya and her family. We love to hear them!      Environmental puzzles Discover puzzles that grow naturally from the objects and surroundings in the room. A quiet, emotional story Piece together the story of Sonya and her family as the scene slowly changes. A focused one-sitting experience Enjoy 9 puzzles and discover Sonya's story. A full playthrough should take about 30 to 60 minutes, though some like to replay it to discover hidden meanings and hints. The beginning of the Blackbird series Each game has a story to tell, but as we make more, they become chapters in a bigger whole. Hand-drawn watercolor Pencils and true watercolour with traditional techniques on (many) layers of physical paper.
