The First Tree is a third-person exploration game developed by David Wehle, the creator of Home is Where One Starts. The game is set in Alaska and features two parallel stories: a fox searching for her missing family and a son reconnecting with his father. Players take control of the fox and embark on a poignant and emotional journey towards The First Tree, the source of life, and perhaps, death.

The game has a short playtime of about an hour and a half and is focused on storytelling with light puzzle-solving and platforming. Along the way, players can discover artifacts and stories from the son's life, which become intertwined in the fox's journey. The game features a beautiful soundtrack composed by Message to Bears, Lowercase Noises, and Josh Kramer, making it a treat for the ears.

The First Tree is perfect for fans of games like Journey, Firewatch, and Shelter. The emotional and intimate story crafted by a one-man team is sure to leave a lasting impression on players. The game also includes English subtitles and an easy-to-use fan translation system, making it accessible to a wider audience.
