In Tiny Talons, you are cast into the feathery shoes of Purdy, a young, flightless bird whose ordinary life takes a sharp turn when he decides to embark on a treacherous journey through the woods. However, fate intervenes, and Purdy slips away, plummeting deep into the mystical Kingmoss Woods. Now, far from his home nest and amidst the chaos, the journey to reunite with his family becomes a thrilling adventure that will test Purdy’s courage and agility to the fullest.
The game introduces a unique movement system, controlled by the user’s mouse, that propels Purdy through a series of challenging woodland landscapes. Your objective is to run, jump, grapple, and dash your way through and around the levels, navigating through the dense foliage of Kingmoss Woods, all while avoiding deadly obstacles like spikes, boulders, and traps that threaten to halt your journey permanently.
“Tiny Talons" is not just a game of survival, but a tale of resilience, family, and the indomitable spirit of a young bird against all odds. Through a blend of captivating storytelling and intuitive gameplay, players will find themselves immersed in Purdy’s quest to reunite with his family.
