The BAFTA-nominated emotional journey zooms in on a young girl’s morning routine, which takes a strange turn. 

A yawn, a morning stretch, a splash of cold water on her face to wake up — just like every other morning…but as she heads downstairs for breakfast with dad, he’s nowhere to be found. Instead, a strange man lounges on the couch, in her father’s favorite spot.

“Who is he? Where is dad…and why is this strange man acting as if he belongs here? Why is he telling me to ‘take my medicine'?"

Unravel answers to every question through a series of interactive mini-games — discover the identity of the mysterious man in her dad’s place as everyday activities hold clues behind the young girl’s odd circumstances.
