Walkthrough

1
The game begins with Jot, a squire in a children's book, in a top-down 2D perspective reminiscent of Zelda 1.
2
The evil wizard, aware of his destined failure, casts Jot out of the book into the owner's 3D bedroom.
3
Jot can now transition between the book and the real world, manipulating pages and words to solve puzzles. For example, changing text like "A massive guard was blocking the way" to "A tiny ant was pushing a crumb" alters the game's reality.

The game transitions seamlessly between the authentic 2D children's book art style and the detailed 3D environments of the bedroom.
5
Players can use objects found in the 3D world, like a Magic: The Gathering card to create a bow, to solve puzzles within the book.
