Wood & Weather

Wood & Weather is an independent simulator in which we play as a god, influencing the lives of the residents of a small town. The game lets us influence weather, causing phenomena such as natural disasters or permanent climate change. The game was developed by the Australian studio Paper House, while the soundtrack was composed by Dan Golding (Untitled Goose Game).

Mechanics

Wood & Weather takes place in an open world inhabited by people resembling wooden toys. They go about their regular lives in a bustling town. Our job is to solve their problems and inspire them. Our divine presence in the toy world manifests as a giant hand, which can directly interact with the community. We use it to make the people's lives easier or more difficult (like throwing somebody's car into a lake).
