Spoiler: The entire game takes place in Minas Tirith. You hit one of the triggers or the touchpad, and Monroe throws an ink pellet, making his first haphazard black splotch on the world, and highlighting the way forward. The screen fades to completely empty white space, with a tiny circle reticule in the center. The storybook narration ends, the screen fades to white, and you're left with one of the most exhilarating moments in all of gaming. Soon after, the disembodied bird flaps off into the blank white nothingness of the painting, and Monroe follows. Throwing paint to see what is in front of you has been compared to the experience of being partially sighted and feeling your way through the world.The Unfinished Swan starts with a kind, grandmotherly voice telling the story of Monroe, a newly orphaned young man, whose mother has just passed away, leaving him orphaned, leaving him nothing but her last, unfinished painting of a swan. There he finds a king and a kingdom that becomes an allegory about dealing with loss and what comes next.Īlong with the unusual interaction, the black, white and primary colours of the game give it an otherworldly feel. With the help of his mother's magical silver paintbrush, Monroe begins to explore the painted world as he chases the swan. One night, Monroe wakes up to find the swan has escaped its painting, and he chases it until he finds himself in the mysterious painted world. Monroe is told by his orphanage that he is only allowed to keep one of her paintings, so he chooses her favourite, a painting of a swan missing its neck. She was a painter who is known to have never finished a painting, having created over 300 incomplete works. His exploration is driven by a desire to recover his deceased mother.

The character we play is the boy, Monroe. It stands out for the unusual revealing of a world you can't see, by what the paint hits.

The tactile experience leads you into a fairy tale about an unfinished painting that leads a child back to his parent. The Unfinished Swan invites you to explore a world by splashing paint on it.
