comment
Unravel is an adorable, physics-based puzzle platformer from Swedish developer Coldwood Interactive.In it, you play as a small creature made from yarn called, appropriately enough, Yarny. A yarn string, which trails endlessly behind Yarny, can be affixed to certain points in the environment, allowing you to jump higher, cross gaps, affix yourself to a floating kite, and more.A sequel titled Unravel Two was announced at E3 2018 on June 9, 2018... and then released the same day. Unravel Two is a two-player game that follows a pair of Yarnys, one red and one blue. The red Yarny is shipwrecked on an island and finds his yarn has been cut short during the crash; he then finds the blue Yarny in a similar condition, and the two join their cut ends together. The game then follows the two conjoined figures as they chase after a small spark released when they bonded, and requires them to cooperate with one another to cross difficult obstacles and gaps that they can't manage alone.

Badass Adorable: Yarny is quite the adventurous little yarn thing. The deadly lemming deserves a mention. While it can brutally rip and beat you to death in a blink of an eye, there's something adorable about the way it coughs, sneezes and chokes on mushroom spores.

Creepy Cockroach: Roaches infest the abandoned offices in "How much is enough?" They nest among the shredded documents and will swarm and kill Yarny. Fortunately, they scatter when Yarny shines a bright light on them.

comment
Hollywood Acid: Averted. While the acidic substance Yarny encounters is the usual bright glowy green, part of the puzzle challenge is that many things actually do not dissolve in it immediately. One particular level is pretty much all about finding enough plastic bottles and other materials to safely traverse the pools.

Super Drowning Skills: Yarny can be submerged for a couple of seconds, but that's about it. Justified, considering how abhorrently heavy wool gets when it soaks in enough water. Averted in the sequel, where the Yarny pair can swim.

Le Parkour: The Yarny pair are a lot more agile than the original Yarny, being able to jump higher and greater distances, including between walls, and their yarn swing also has greater power, with them even being easily able to do a circle.

Snow Means Death
 Unravel (Video Game) / int_55180ce
comment
Snow Means Death: Defied. The two snow levels that come after the toxic spill are intentionally upbeat, jolly, and optimistic, with playful achievements for obssessively breaking ice sheets and knocking snow pillows off branches. They serve to cheer you up after a particularly depressing part of the game.Later played straight with the penultimate level of the game, which has Yarny fighting a deadly blizzard, forcing himself through deep snow, to recover the final scrapbook piece. It takes place at a cemetery.

Rule of Symbolism
 Unravel (Video Game) / int_916c72b3
comment
Rule of Symbolism: The entirety of "The Last Leaf". A fierce blizzard threatens to blow Yarny away, and its only anchor from being blown is a warm, bright lantern it drags in tow. It's all that keeps Yarny from being blown away by the cruel, cold gusts of wind. Ultimately, however, Yarny has to leave behind the lantern and must trek the snowy landscape alone. If anything, this represents the old woman's grieving process over her late husband, as the memories do bring her comfort, but she must ultimately let go of the past in order to move on.

Feathered Fiend: Except for the magpie mentioned in the Androcles' Lion example, birds are often out to get Yarny. A raven makes off with a scrapbook piece at the end of "Down a Hole" and Yarny has to steal it back at the end of "How much is enough." Ravens infesting the fields of "The letter" will dive bomb and carry off Yarny unless he hides behind cover. In the sequel, a wood grouse is a threat to the Yarny pair.

Jump Scare: Only one, but very effective. At the very beginning of "Down in a Hole," a car suddenly comes thundering down the road that Yarny is crossing and goes over him, causing Yarny (and probably the player) to jump and cower in fright.
