About Shindig
Shindig's a warm, cheerful, fully-voiced and feelsy narrative adventure, where you'll help out a rainbow of quirky characters with their troubles, gather all the bits for a brilliant bash, and bring your new neighbourhood together for a joyous party. You've got this!
Features:
- Explore a hand-drawn, picturebook setting, accompanied by an original soundtrack stacked with bops, and full English voiceover!
- Enjoy a short, emotional, narrative adventure presented in a point-and-click style. Shindig takes just a few hours to play - about the length of a feature film
- Choose your look from a range of skin tones and hairstyles, and select between a masculine(ish) and feminine(ish) voice for your protagonist. (We're just two devs. It's literally us!)
- Chill with cozy, low-stakes gameplay, and some light puzzle-solving
- Meet a memorable and diverse cast of characters who want to talk to you about their big boggles
- Chortle at idiosyncratic, surreal humour throughout – with a couple of silly songs, and a side-helping of real talk
- Embark on a little, linear adventure with zero choice pressure and only one ending – the GOOD ENDING!
- Tweak your settings with independent controls for SFX, voice and music volumes, and a Closed Captions overlay option that calls out many nonverbal sounds for our HoH players
- While it’s not designed FOR kids (we use a few big words) Shindig has no swears or scares, just a few serious conversations in the hangouts touching on a variety of deeper emotional topics – if that’s not your bag, much of the serious stuff is in optional hangouts that you can ignore if you want to

very cute adventure game for kids1 found this helpful
While Shindig may appear to be aimed at children the game can be enjoyed by all, okay maybe not dark souls fans unless you fancy a change of pace. While the game’s puzzles are simplistic unlike other point-and-click games it does not take away from the overall experience Shindig will scratch that point-and-click adventure itch. The perfect experience for point-and-click adventure fans and people that want a relaxing, insightful game with its relatable characters, its running mental health themes and how it’s okay to be a square peg in a circle hole. I have been struggling to get into gaming lately, and Shindig was one I sailed through and found myself laughing out loud and also relating to some of the characters. While the game is short easily completed in 2/3 hours it’s the perfect game to fully immerse yourself in. I would also love to see more from the developers especially what’s behind the waterfall?

This game is truly a hidden gem. Adorable graphics , unique and charming characters, fun puzzles, what more could you want? Highly recommend!!
Cute game! I love all the little personal touches and I got a few good laughs from some of the dialog. I liked that after the game was "done" you got to go and interact more with some of the characters. I'm glad this game was made. I would recommend giving it a try.
Almost -too- cozy. I rolled my eyes at times. But I was in the mood for a not-very challenging game that was cheerful and upbeat, and it delivered on that. So yeah, a nice game.
So cute and oddly not what I thought! I thought just a cute kids game but that wasn't the case, it had some cute stuff that be kid stuff BUT! There were a lot of references adults could relate to as well!
