In the game Nimbus, you will place clouds on drawings to group them into categories.
At the end, thanks to the still visible drawings - which are also letters - 2 mystery words appear!
Thus, this deduction game uses pareidolia (optical illusions) and spatial arrangement.
Nimbus teaches language games. Through deduction, it first puts players into an intuitive mechanic that consists of sorting, arranging, and organizing elements by categorizing them using clouds that hide them. Then, thanks to the still visible elements and pareidolia, players decipher two words with the same letters. This effect is made possible by the organized imposition of an anagram's letters into a grid, allowing for both horizontal and vertical reading. This discovery creates a final magic that makes players want to continue with enigmas that present various resolution tricks.
Nimbus is a fun and addictive language game. It is particularly original due to its use of pareidolia, with no equivalent on the market. A rich and poetic ABC book, used in different forms.
