Possessions invites you to change your perspective to uncover a wordless story, coming soon to iOS and Android
Time to line up the furniture
- Uncover the narrative without any dialogue
- Minimalist 3D puzzles
- Shift things around to solve each level
Noodlecake and Lucid Labs have announced the return of Possessions on iOS and Android after its stint as an Apple Arcade exclusive, inviting you to view things around you with a fresh perspective. This minimalist puzzler features lovely dioramas of a family's, well, possessions, with tidbits of the narrative unfolding as you go along.
It's interesting how these kinds of wordless experiences can sometimes tell a tale much more effectively even without any dialogue, and Possessions seems to know how to wield that kind of mechanic effortlessly. You'll have to rotate the scenes in front of you to keep items in their right place, whether that's a photo frame in disarray or a hanging cupboard door.
I suppose you'll need to keep your spatial awareness totally on point here, but just in case you get a tad frustrated, the soothing soundscape should at least help you keep the negative thoughts at bay.
There's a new AR mode too by the way, which means you can physically move around rooms to explore the different levels. As with anything, be careful when you start exploring in public - you wouldn't want to stumble into places you shouldn't be in or give some innocent bystander a heart attack.

Possessions is now open for pre-registration on iOS and Android, with an official global launch on February 27th. It'll have a Try Before You Buy monetisation model on iOS, and a free-with-ads model on Android with a one-time purchase to remove ads.
To celebrate the launch, there will be a 20% discount for the $4.99 in-app purchase for the first two weeks. You can also visit the official website, or take a little peek at the embedded clip above to get a feel of the vibes and visuals.
