The Letter

The Letter is an adventure mystery game developed and published by Eli Brewer of American indie studio TreeFall Studios. The player takes the role of a young boy, Michael Kennedy, who receives a mysterious letter from his missing father and begins a quest to find him. The game was developed on an underfunded budget across one to two months and subsequently released on the Nintendo eShop on July 10, 2014. Critical reception was strongly negative upon its release, with some reviewers stating that it was not a legitimate game and others suggesting its removal from the eShop. The game was later re-released as The Letter: Classic Edition on PlayStation 4 and Windows via Steam on November 8, 2022.
