Jake's Very Last Journey

Game Summary

Jake has an unfortunate mishap on his way home, a mishap that lands him right in the clouds. He needs to find his way to the Pearly Gates and into heaven. But to make that happen, he needs your help. Encounter, and counter, a preachy neighbour and an ill-tempered ghost in a wild and wonderful journey!
By: Peter G. Bouillon

Justification for Choosing

Fernewelten recently won the 2023 AGS award in innovation. To celebrate, I propose you his victorious entry for the MAGS competition of November 2019: a surreal post-mortem trip in the clouds to help Jake find his way to the Pearly Gates. His games shine with inventive puzzles and this one is no exception. If you're looking for an Easter-themed game, you can also check "Huggles goes on a trip" on his Gamejolt page, available for a small price.
