Our take on thanks mom
The brief format keeps the experience focused on its dream narrative, but it leaves little room for extended exploration, complex systems, or a long progression arc.
What is thanks mom?
Control a baby in an adventure game set around sleep, milk, and a dream filled with memories of past trials.
Progress by inspecting objects and uncovering what happened before birth. There is no time limit, so exploration follows a self-directed pace rather than a timed challenge. The game is structured as a brief experience with an estimated playtime of 10 to 20 minutes. A baby’s lively voice accompanies the journey. Finding the cow changes the ending, adding a specific discovery to the game’s exploration. The premise focuses on avoiding a nightmare while revealing the dream’s underlying story.
