The Three Cardinals

About this game

The Three Cardinals is a short, nonlinear exploration game with rhythm-based character movement. You play as Mother Cardinal and explore 3 distinct regions to find your chicks who all recently moved out of the family nest…

 

KEY FEATURES

  • EXPLORE scenic landscapes inspired by Quebec’s wilderness: from the Northern Cliffs’ golden woods to the Eastern Bay’s rocky beaches…

  • FLY AND SING using simple controls. Feel like going a little faster? As you fly, press “Space Bar” to the music’s melody and boost your speed! Later, upgrade this ability by finding each of the three cardinals' instruments…

 

  • MAKE FRIENDS with over 50 unique characters! Whether you’re looking to test your flying skills in a race with Jé, the blue jay, or crack the case on the Eastern Bay’s latest mystery with Sullivan, the snowy owl, there’s always a new friend around the corner to speak to…

  • COLLECT ITEMS and use them to craft new furniture for your chicks when they come back home! A couple pebbles and twigs could be used to make a pebble-bath and branch-couch… or maybe you could even find a stranger willing to exchange these materials for a pet bumblebee!
