More On: Scarf

While temperatures lately have been in the 80s and 90s (or maybe higher depending on where you are), THQ Nordic is already preparing for winter with their upcoming game Scarf. Scarf, slated for a PC release in winter 2018.2019, is a 3D adventure game where the protagonist Hyke must use his scarf to explore and solve puzzles as well as overcome difficult challenges. How? Well it turns out that Hyke's scarf can actually morph into different objects to help him progress. The trailer shows his scarf turning into things such as a pair of wings and a hang glider among other things. We may be several months away, but the trailer looks pretty good and I for one am looking forward to winter.
