Heaven is a place called Meadow! Vast, teeming with life, and a unique social experience. Frolic freely in the lush fields of Meadow – a unique multiplayer sandbox. About Meadow : Unlike traditional titles from the Shelter game series, in Meadow – A Shelter Game, the more time spent embracing the gameplay features in the world, the more you receive. Owning any previous Shelter related title(s) or products will also unlock in-game content. The open landscape also provides ample room for exploration. Band together with other animals, form alliances or choose to explore the world alone. Whatever you decide, the open world is one you will want to immerse yourself in. Main features: Play as any combination of animals on land, water or air in the largest expanse of land ever created for a Shelter game. Communicate with other animals via specially created emotes, symbols and sounds. Use your senses to discover, track and band together with other animals or choose to discover the world alone. Visit the den to choose from up to 9 different animals. Modify your chosen animal with over 60 skins to create the animal you want to be. Explore over 90 expressions and symbols to unlock. New original music from Retro Family. The more Shelter titles and products you own, the more bonuses you unlock. Shelter products in Meadow Owning any Shelter game will unlock the ability to play as that animal in Meadow (e.g. owning Shelter 2 unlocks the lynx, etc.). Owning all games (no soundtracks or books included) will give you the possibility to play as the adorable bear cub from Paws – A Shelter Game. Gain unique sound abilities if you own any combination of soundtracks from the Shelter-games. Owning the interactive books from the Shelter-series will unlock unique 3-dimensional emotes. For the collector and owner of the entire Shelter catalogue, you will unlock the ability to play as a bird.
