Hob is a single player puzzle game developed by Runic Games, the same team behind Torchlight and Torchlight 2. In Hob, you are sent on an adventure to save the world. In a wordless narrative, you’ll get to experience the story as you go through the planet on your own. Some of the strange lifeforms that inhabit the world will be a part of it. Like the Sprites, beautiful Princess Mononoke-inspired characters, who play a major role in the narrative, even though they are side characters. You’ll not only get to know the world with them, but they’ll also help and guide you. And how could you not fall in love with them when they are so cute?

The world will transform according to your actions, as you solve the puzzles and repair the planet. With the help of a mechanical glove-arm, you’ll be able to grapple, punch and warp. Use it wisely, as there are rogue creatures out there that are not fond of your actions.
