The Bench

Ever wanted to experience a day in the life of an old man sitting on a park bench? What does he do all day, sitting there with his stick and newspaper as the day goes by? In The Bench, you'll step into the shoes of a wise, seasoned senior enjoying his day in a lively, interactive world. But don't get too comfortable; your mission is to find the hidden objects scattered around you, all while fending off some rather insistent pigeons who think you're their personal food supplier!

Explore beautifully designed, colorful maps, each with its own quirks, and dive into fun mini-games, such as solving newspaper puzzles to keep your mind sharp and stop you from dozing off.  Whether you're feeding pigeons or hunting for another lost item to add to your cabinet of treasures, there's always something to keep you entertained whilst sitting on The Bench. Perfect for fans of hidden object games and puzzle games, The Bench is a delightful mix of relaxation and challenge, with a dash of wholesome humor.

In The Bench, you wear the comfy slippers of a spirited old pensioner armed with a walking stick, a notebook, an endless bread supply, and loyal pigeon mates. Tired of retirement home rules and fueled by a vivid imagination (or maybe those meds he's prescribed), you'll hatch a daring escape plan. Crack eggs open to summon your feathered minions, build a flying army to do your bidding and throw bread to jump from bench to bench, order your pigeons to collect objects, play minigames, and explore our colorful world!
