Our take on Tiny Island
Rather than giving a god simulator conventional omnipotent controls, Tiny Island makes chopsticks the main way to affect its world. Its violence-free setting and focus on small, humorous interactions replace the genre’s usual emphasis on conquest, destruction, or grand-scale intervention.
