What it does

Dropsy is a non-traditional take on the classic point and click adventure formula starring the game’s perpetually carefree namesake clown as he explores a richly detailed world full of colorful characters and sinister secrets, doling out hugs along the way.

“This levity, this world, and these people are going to be with me forever. If you've ever complained about there being too much violence in gaming, or that games are all the same, and you don't play this... I hope somebody hugs you.” 9.5/10 – Destructoid “...a beautiful, bewildering, unforgettable game of hugs, love, and hollowing sadness.” 8/10 – The Jimquisition “Dropsy is a game that warmed my hardened, cynical heart.” 8/10 – GamesBeat The Dropsy Warm Damp Hug Edition includes the official Dropsy digital soundtrack by Chris Schlarb, the Eternal Hug music EP by Jay Tholen, and Dropsy's Book of Secrets - a collection of over 100 pages of tips, sketches, concepts and ramblings from…from store.steampowered.com
