The game was ported to Windows and OS X PC platforms via Steam in 2014, and on the Wii U via eShop on September 17, 2015. It was succeeded by the free, e-picturebook Year Walk: Bedtime Stories for Awful Children.

The game is set in 19th century Sweden and follows the protagonist, Daniel Svensson, as he attempts to year walk, a ritual that allows one to see into the future. The player must explore the dark woods and solve puzzles in order to complete the year walk and learn Daniel’s fate.
