About

Adventure awaits! Join Tyke on a cozy hiking expedition to the sprawling Pine Hearts nature reserve and scale the mountain your father never managed to climb. 

Splash through rockpools, explore mysterious caves, clean up campsites, investigate old castle ruins, and play on the beach as Tyke revisits the scenes of childhood holidays and recollects past adventures with his dad. 

The Pine Hearts nature reserve is an enchanting world of crisscrossing paths and shortcuts, filled with surprising interactions. Make lots of new friends and complete quirky quests for locals in need, including:  

  • Judging a vegetable competition! 🥕 

  • Conducting a brass band! 🎺 

  • Helping a ghost! 👻 

  • Rebuilding a whale-watching boat! 🐋 

  • Rescuing wayward bees! 🐝 

  • Setting (camera) traps to catch a monster! 📸

Lose yourself in a charming world packed with memories and make it a holiday to remember for everyone.
