The Whispered World is an impressive project developed by a graphic designer
student in Germany named Marco Hullen. It tells the story of a boy named Sadwick. He
roams the country with his family in a circus wagon and earns his living as a clown.
One night he has a dream and a blue spirit tells him that he has to embark on a great
journey to enlightenment in order to find the sense of life. Since his life as a
clown is not a very fulfilling one, he jumps on the opportunity and leaves his
family, attempting to trace the great secret. So the great journey through a fantasy
world begins. The game includes over 20 sceneries and is sort of a cartoon movie
played by your self. Sadwick is accompanied by his pet (a small worm) that will
provide some funny moments throughout the game's story. Some of the noteworthy events
that will take place in the game include Sadwick meeting a troll under a gigantic
bridge, seeing carnivorous birds, entering a village on the back of an eagle and
finally solving the mystery of the game in the palace of the mirror natures. In May/2014, a Special Edition was released which included exclusive contents, such as audio comments, featuring the games' authors Jan 'Poki' Mueller-Michaelis and Marco Huellen, a completely overhauled tutorial as well as new achievements.
