Sunset Hills is the latest puzzle game to hit Android, brought to you by Cottongame, the creative minds behind Reviver and Mr. Pumpkin Adventure.

Accompany Nico, a War Veteran, in His Journey
In Sunset Hills, you step into the shoes of Nico Grant, a novelist and former soldier. The year is 794, and Nico embarks on a train journey to reconnect with his fellow ex-servicemen after seven years since the war's end. Driven by an inner need, Nico seeks to reunite with his old friends, Ferruccio, Doug, and Roy.
As the game unfolds, it delves deep into Nico's emotions and past memories. As a child, Nico was reserved, preferring the solace of books and the expanse of his imagination over social interactions. The war thrust him into a world where his small stature and uniqueness made him a target for bullying and isolation. Yet, Nico found solace and strength in writing, using a small notebook as his emotional outlet. This notebook not only helped him cope but also became the foundation of his friendships with his squadmates, transforming initial teasing into bonds that endured beyond the battlefield.
Now a published author, Nico's journey takes him across various cities and countries by train. Each stop presents new moments and puzzles to solve, weaving together his past and present.
