Dundee, Jan 21st, in the year of our Lord 2016 -- BAUM is an enchanting, highly-addictive 2D platform game due to launch on the Apple App Store on Thursday 21st January in 12 languages. The first release of Dundee independent games studio, A Fox Wot I Drew, it has been supported to market by the University of Dundee’s Design in Action project along with Abertay University.

What is BAUM?

Translated from the German for ‘tree’, BAUM is a physics-based puzzle platformer for iOS.

Simultaneously exciting and tranquil, the challenge is to guide your raindrop through twisted tree limbs, flowers, thorns, mushrooms and more using the power of wind across a beautifully designed backdrop.

Like the droplet, find the flow and fluidity of the levels to avoid obstacles that will cut your journey to the roots short. BAUM rewards the use of natural, sweeping gestures to navigate the world and leads the player with flowers to bloom, bringing the tree to life. Organic shapes and fluid movements will rule the day in a world where players must practise control and finesse to succeed in their journey.
