By launching paint Monroe can guide them to cover walls and objects, providing a means to climb and cross water that is deadly.
In the second chapter with a giant city labyrinth vines are introduced. Often there are brightly coloured objects that show where to go next or act as landmarks.Īs Monroe explores castles and cities he often needs to solve environment-based puzzles, using ladders, jumping over gaps, and using paint to activate triggers that open gates of move platforms. Later levels are coloured entirely of largely in shades of grey and other types of paint are introduced, but they are not used simultaneously. The initial technique of revelation is not maintained for the entire game as it makes navigation slow.
The game is split up into four large chapters with multiple levels for each. It can best be compared to the process of stone rubbing where the sense of distance and perspective of the entire world is only established through the paint. Objects or level elements do not disappear when they are not splattered, but it is as if Monroe is walking into a giant void. That way launching paint is the only means to reveal surfaces. The white garden where the game starts is entirely white, meaning there are no shadows or shades to give shape to the surroundings. His only ability is to splatter the world with paint. The game is played from a first-person perspective and Monroe is able to move around and jump. The story is furthered in-game through cut-scenes between chapters and in-game drawings like pages out of a children's storybook. During the journey he chases after the swan and finds out he has entered the realm of a king. He follows it and is transported in a magical world that is entirely white. One night he awakens to discover the swan has jumped out of the canvas and has disappeared through a small door. She used to paint and he brought along one of her favourite paintings: The Unfinished Swan, displaying a swan that is missing its neck. The player controls the character Monroe whose ends up in an orphanage after his mother died.
The Unfinished Swan is a game based around exploration.
