Weakless
Play as two Weavelings – carefree, wooden creatures – one of which is deaf, the other blind. Switch between the two, solve unique puzzles and save their world! Born in the minds of two students, Weakless got the well deserved support from the ARP Games acceleration programme and soon grew to be a wonderful, full-fledged gaming experience. Weakless was appreciated by many crowds, receiving such awards as Best Game Art Design (Aniwow!2018, Beijing), Best Art and Grand Prix (Baltic Sea Games Awards, Vilnus) or People’s Choice Award (Game Access, Brno).
The beauty of a true friendship
In Weakless you can control only one character at a time, which means you can’t use the senses of both of them simultaneously. Because of this, you get a unique perspective on how differently they perceive the world around them and at the same time how the two support and complement each other. Deaf being his usual “whizz in a pinny” brings joy to the slightly defensive and introverted Blind. While Blind on the other hand, with the power of his calmness, takes care of the ubiquitous Deaf.
Find strengths in your weaknesses
In our world, people with no vision or hearing often have other, sharper, senses. The same is true for Weavelings. Discover the extraordinary set of skills your heroes have, and prove to the world that what’s always been considered a weakness can, in fact, be a mighty advantage.
Fairytale-like world
The game takes place in a world full of wonderful, distinctive landscapes. Your path will lead through caves full of glowing fungi, natural basins, forgotten ruins and more. Traveling through this extraordinary world will lead the Weavelings to experience the adventure of their lifetime and discover the mysterious past that led to their home teetering on the edge of destruction.
