Pode is a game about a rock helping a fallen star reach a mountain top.

The rock can push buttons, creep through tunnels, make plants come out of the ground, and swallow the star. The star can make plants grow and blossom, it can teleport and float a little. With those abilities, they can overcome all sorts of obstacles. And that comes in handy because the road is full of obstacles that have to be overcome by solving puzzles.

Pode looks and plays great. And best of all, it can be played by two players. My son and I have been having great fun, but also have been a little frustrated with some obscure puzzles. It’s great to be able play these kinds of games together and create shared memories!
