Take it slow in this stop-motion sci-fi adventure

Hang out with Harold Halibut.

A point-and-click adventure built with real-world materials and then animated with stop-motion, Harold Halibut tells a story that’s at times slow and ponderous and, at others, cozy and heartwarming. Harold Halibut plays out like a simplified adventure game — think Monkey Island or Myst — where you’re mostly running around performing a series of chores, like delivering items or scrubbing graffiti off a wall. You can walk through a commercial district complete with a pub where a robot arm serves drinks and a sporting goods shop that has a skiing simulator (despite the fact that no one on board really knows what snow is).
