I'm looking for the title of the game where it involves traveling via
walking or floating on wings later between trees. You get to choose
which person you want to start out with(different ppl have different
starting huts/houses and locations). Theres a skill in the game that
determines if the npc are friendly towards you or not. Your also
supposed to collect items for power or not? Forgot what the purpose of
the game was but I never beat it.
This is stretching my memory a lot. I used to play in the library when
I was 9 after beating oregon trail and number crunchers.
please shoot me an email neal.njwang@gmail.com if u know the title of
this game thanks
