FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - 8/8/22
PHILADELPHIA, PA – August 1st, 2022 – Three Bees, the development team behind 2022's critically-acclaimed Perfect Tides, announced today that their debut adventure game, which explores the world and inner life of a teenaged girl, will be getting a follow-up release. Perfect Tides: Station to Station continues the story of now 18-year-old Mara Whitefish, who leaves her small island for school - and life - in the big city. Uprooted from home and aspiring to write, Mara spends most of her time in transit, looking for knowledge, adventure and a sense of belonging in the adult world. The game is in early stages of production, and is expected to release on PC and Mac in 2024.

Players of the original Perfect Tides will find a familiar but streamlined set of point and click mechanics, along with new ways to explore both the physical realm and Mara’s mind. “There’s a whole new world to discover in Station to Station,” says writer and lead developer Meredith Gran, “Not just a world of objects, but also a world of ideas and their dimensions.” Players can expect more cinematic, branching stories of youth, love and longing that drew them to the series.
Three Bees is currently fundraising for Perfect Tides: Station to Station on Kickstarter. Backers can pre-order the game, buy the original Perfect Tides at a discount, and choose from an array of digital and physical rewards.
