"Sunset Hills: A Novel Puzzle on a Dog Veteran's Journey"

Sunset Hills is the latest puzzle game released on Android by Cottongame, the creative minds behind Reviver and Mr. Pumpkin Adventure. Staying true to their signature style, Sunset Hills immerses players in a serene, pastel-hued world filled with historic cityscapes, anthropomorphic dogs, and touching narratives.

Accompany Nico, a War Veteran, in His Journey

In Sunset Hills, you step into the shoes of Nico Grant, a novelist and former soldier. The game opens in June 794 as Nico embarks on a train journey to reconnect with his fellow ex-servicemen after a seven-year hiatus since the war's end. Driven by an inner need to rekindle these bonds, Nico seeks out Ferruccio, Doug, and Roy.

As the story unfolds, it delves deep into Nico's emotional landscape and past memories. As a child, Nico was introverted, preferring the company of books and his own imagination over social interactions. Despite his reluctance, the war drafted him in, and his small stature and unique personality made him a target for bullying and isolation. Yet, Nico found solace and strength in writing, using a small notebook as his emotional outlet. This notebook not only helped him cope but also served as a bridge to form lasting friendships with his squadmates.

Now a successful author, Nico's journey takes him across various cities and countries. Each train stop presents new puzzles and moments to explore, blending Nico's personal growth with engaging gameplay.
