When Quico acquires his robot friend Lula, he can send the robot across expanses to push otherwise unreachable chalk symbols and change the environment.
The game introduces new mechanics until the very end, but interactions include moving boxes that correspond to large houses in a grid, pulling ropes on walls to peel out their layer like a fruit, and directing the centipede plank Monster is asleep on along a chalk path. By pulling levers, turning keys, and reconnecting gears, Quico can alter a staid, often realistic-looking environment into a abstract, fantastical area, replete with leaning stacks of houses and wooden planks that grow legs to become friendly insects. Quico interacts with chalk drawings and symbols on the walls of his imagined world of Brazilian favelas. This is a puzzle platformer game in which a large part is learning to harness Monsters emotions, including his addiction to frogs. Papa & Yo is mostly based in an imaginary world created by Quico to understand his reality, however parts of real world make their way into the game as the story progresses.
It is a direct allegory for Vander Cabellero's childhood and his father's alcoholism. Players will need to learn to use Monster’s emotions, both good and bad, to their advantage if they want to complete their search for a cure and save their pal.Papo & Yo (pronounced "Papo y Yo") was developed by Canadian studio Minority, with Vander Caballero as creative director. And yet, Quico loves his Monster and wants to save him.Īs Quico, players will build their friendship with Monster by solving puzzles together and adventuring through a magical, surrealist world. The minute he sees one hop by, he’ll scarf it down and fly into a violent, frog-induced rage where no one, including Quico, is safe. That said, Monster does have a very dangerous problem: an addiction to poisonous frogs.
Quico’s best friend, Monster, is a huge beast with razor-sharp teeth, but that doesn’t scare Quico away from playing with him.
