Beauty in the Grid
A downloadable game
This is a bright and colourful world filled with bold, saturated hues. It's a world where things make sense and add up, but still with a splash of risk and challenge. Most problems have an underlying cause — literally. Underneath the visible is a hidden pattern that can be fit together, illuminated, and brought forth into the visible with a burst of color.
The characters in Beauty in the Grid are artists, psychics, and logicians of a particular kind. They find hidden patterns in the world and bring them to life. Sometimes the only goal is to simply add beauty to the world and sometimes it's to create the missing piece to solve a problem.
