Max and the Millions

From Costa-shortlisted superstar, a highly anticipated standalone adventure about what happens when you find a tiny, living, breathing civilisation on the floor of your school dorm room.

Max is used to spending time alone - it's difficult to make friends in a big, chaotic school when you're deaf. He prefers to give his attention to the little things in life . . . like making awesome, detailed replica models.

Then Mr Darrow, the school caretaker and fellow modeller, goes missing. Max must follow his parting instruction: 'Go to my room. You'll know what to do.'

There on the floor he finds a pile of sand . . . and in the sand is Mr Darrow's latest creation . . . a tiny boy, no bigger than a raisin, Luke, Prince of the Blues. And behind the tiny boy . . . millions of others - a thriving, bustling, sprawling civilization!

这是一款备受期待的独立冒险游戏，讲述的是当你在学校宿舍的地板上发现一个微小的、活生生的、会呼吸的文明时会发生什么。

麦克斯已经习惯了独处——如果你是个聋子，你很难在又大又乱的学校里交到朋友。他更喜欢把注意力放在生活中的小事情上。比如制作令人惊叹的、详细的复制品。

然后，学校管理员兼模特同事达罗先生失踪了。麦克斯必须按照他的临别指示:“到我房间去。”你知道该怎么做。”

他在地板上发现了一堆沙子……在沙滩上是达罗先生的最新作品……一个比葡萄干还小的小男孩，卢克，蓝调王子。在这个小男孩的身后…数以百万计的人——一个繁荣、繁华、蔓延的文明!
