The studio behind the infamous No Man’s Sky has released the first gameplay trailer for their new project The Last Campfire. After Hello Games did what no one expected and turned around No Man’s Sky’s disastrous launch into one of the best survival games available currently, the developer truly earned its reputation as a trustworthy developer.

And thus, The Last Campfire comes into play. Today, quite literally as Hello Games is showing the gameplay. What immediately strikes us is the whimsical art style that manages to mix a mysterious, dangerous fantasy world with colorful and inviting aesthetics. Similarities to genre icons like Limbo are very apparent.

Even more so, since the game’s hero Ember is a wholesomely-cute little fella who’s trying to rekindle his friends around a titular fireplace. To achieve this, Ember will have to solve some light environmental puzzles while discovering the mysteries behind a withered-down world.
