About The Three Cardinals
The Three Cardinals is a short, nonlinear exploration game with rhythm-based character movement. You play as Mother Cardinal and explore 3 distinct regions to find your chicks who all recently moved out of the family nest… KEY FEATURES
- EXPLORE scenic landscapes inspired by Quebec’s wilderness: from the Northern Cliffs’ golden woods to the Eastern Bay’s rocky beaches…
- FLY AND SING using simple controls. Feel like going a little faster? As you fly, press “Space Bar” to the music’s melody and boost your speed! Later, upgrade this ability by finding each of the three cardinals' instruments…
- MAKE FRIENDS with over 50 unique characters! Whether you’re looking to test your flying skills in a race with Jé, the blue jay, or crack the case on the Eastern Bay’s latest mystery with Sullivan, the snowy owl, there’s always a new friend around the corner to speak to…
- COLLECT ITEMS and use them to craft new furniture for your chicks when they come back home! A couple pebbles and twigs could be used to make a pebble-bath and branch-couch… or maybe you could even find a stranger willing to exchange these materials for a pet bumblebee!

This is simply a masterpiece... The landscapes, the music, the unique bird designs, you simply can tell a lot of effort went behind the creation of this game. It's got everything a good adventure game needs and much more!! Beautiful and meaningful story, I must say it made me teary at times! Thankfully, small talk with the NPCs and carefully inserted jokes here and there alleviated the play-through! Trust me, you absolutely need to play this game. Remember to always love you mother and remind her of it often!! <3 10/106 found this helpful

Decently enjoyable. Doesn't really have anything standing out. Some amateurish-but-not-bad writing. Unique visuals, but I wouldn't call them breathtaking. Gameplay hits me right as a goal-oriented gamer: get this, collect that, get this achievement; not a bad dopamine hit. If this game had any kind of marketing, I could easily see it selling thousands of copies instead of sitting here with 0 reviews. Casual, inexperienced people would love this.2 found this helpful

This game is fantastic!! I've only just started and I ADORE the story! The little birds are so cute, and the quests really make me feel involved with the game. There's just so much to do!! I love the flight mechanics too, how they're so simple but feel so cool! 10/10, I recommended it to all my friends!1 found this helpful
