The world falls into silence. But a mysterious, plucky violinist named Philemon was brought back to life and sets off to gather a new orchestra and return the world to a musical and lively state.
Your violin and bow aren't just for show: they're how you transport yourself across the world. Catapult through levels featuring platforming challenges on your quest to re-activate the machine that will bring energy back into the world. You can play the violin to activate level elements, bringing them back to life and allowing you to move forward. The environments combine music and machinery.
