  • Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure offers a new twist to classic grid-based puzzles
  • Follow Jemma's story as a misfit who ventures out into the world
  • The game will have an 8-10 hour campaign

As revealed on Nintendo Direct, indie studio Furniture & Mattress' Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure will be coming to mobile via Netflix later this year, and will also launch on Switch, PlayStation 5, and PC/Mac. This charming game takes your typical grid-based puzzle and adds a quirky RPG element to it along with an interesting narrative, where you'll follow the tale of a small-town misfit as she discovers the ins and outs of the great big world beyond her comfort zone.

In Arranger: A Puzzle Adventure, you can look forward to a one-of-a-kind experience where you'll move Jemma along while the world moves with her with every step you take. There's no XP or inventory to tinker around with, but the 8-10 hour campaign will keep you busy with its own blend of puzzle and combat across a gorgeous painterly art style.

“We started talking about this project on March 10th, 2020, so obviously a lot has changed in the world since then,” says co-founder Nick Suttner. “But we’ve done the best we can to stay positive in a challenging environment in which to make games, and to create something beautiful, breezy, and memorable that stays true to each of our sensibilities. While we’ve all been in games for a while, this was a milestone project for all of us - my first time working on a game from start to finish, Nico’s first time shipping a full-scope game across multiple platforms, and David’s first full game project since Braid. Thanks to anyone who gives it a shot, it means a lot to us!”
