Where the Lost Things Go

After a loss brings you back to your childhood home, a strange creature begins returning the things you lost years ago. In a town where old wetland legends refuse to die, you must decide what to do with the house, the past, and the life waiting beyond your back fence. You came home to settle an estate, not to stay. The old house is full of memories, the wetland beyond the back fence is slowly drying up, and the life you built elsewhere hasn't turned out quite the way you hoped. All you want is to sort through the past, make a few difficult decisions, and figure out what comes next. Then something begins leaving things on your doorstep. A smooth river stone. A childhood keepsake you lost decades ago. Little pieces of a life you thought you'd left behind. The locals have stories about a strange animal living in the reeds, inspired by tales of the **bunyip**, the mysterious being of Australian Aboriginal folklore associated with waterways. Some say it returns lost things. Others insist it's bad luck to see one near your home. Nobody agrees on what lives in the wetland, and nobody seems to know much about it. But you remember. Once, when you were a child, you had a peculiar little companion at the waterhole. You thought you'd imagined it. You thought you'd forgotten it. Maybe you were wrong. **Where the Lost Things Go** is a cozy, bittersweet cryptid adventure inspired by Australian folklore. Explore a sleepy rural town, uncover old memories, build relationships, and discover the mysteries of a threatened wetland—all at your own pace. There are no prophecies to fulfill and no perfect endings waiting to be found. The creature has its own life, the people around you have their own troubles, and the future is yours to shape. You can stay. You can leave. You can try to save what's disappearing, or learn to let go of what cannot be kept. Sometimes, coming home doesn't mean going back. Sometimes, it means discovering what home could become.
