Gnomdom for Windows

The Gnomdom is a point-and-click puzzle game. The player's objective is to locate and assist gnomes in returning to their home. The game features hand-drawn visuals and utilizes nature-themed soundscapes. The stated gameplay mechanics involve puzzle-solving within these environments.

Gnomdom’s promotional material highlights charming illustrations, a natural environment, atmospheric nature sound, and funny and relaxing levels. The game’s development team consists of two individuals, and this is their first published game. The game's narrative revolves around assisting gnomes who are stranded in different locations by finding them and guiding them back to their home.

Hand-drawn gnomes and puzzle-driven journey home

The game has a simple premise and it goes like this: Deep within the woods, nestled inside a large mushroom, a lively party unfolds in a quaint village. The table is set, but the gnomes are nowhere to be found in the party. Obstacles blocked their path and they are stranded in different locations. The task now is to help them. 

Gnomdom’s promotion emphasizes a funny and relaxing gameplay experience. The game's narrative, centered on returning gnomes to their home, is presented as a primary driver of player engagement. To find the gnomes, be curious and click on everything, be it leaves, stones, flowers, animals because there are 12 photos hidden in the woods. Find them and collect them for the album. 

The absence of specific puzzle descriptions leaves the player to infer the gameplay mechanics. There are also no hints available. The point-and-click nature of the game lets you interact with on-screen elements to solve challenges. The team's small size, while potentially limiting production scope, also indicates a focused, personal development approach. However, the core gameplay loop can become too repetitive, limiting the number of playthroughs and gameplay variety. 

Relaxing, cute puzzle game

Gnomdom’s core gameplay experience is presented as a combination of visual storytelling and puzzle-solving. The narrative framework focuses on guiding gnomes back to their origin. Almost all of the puzzles are intuitive and solvable within a couple of minutes, but there will be some of them that are difficult and could stump you. However, the gameplay is short, lasting about one to two hours of play.
