Drench: A Dry Tap Tale

One day on a trip to the desert, three friends arrive to a broken waterpump on their bicycle. They encounter a lone creature living by this pump, who offers them water in exchange for helping him repair the water turbine.

In this story adventure game, the four creatures must work together in order to restore the wasteland's nurtung flow of water. Their differences, their strengths and weaknesses make them a perfect team, as they explore the world around them and become closer throughout their adventures. 

Will you be able to use their strengths together to restore the waterpump?

Solve puzzles by exploring, pushing and interacting with objects. Switch between four different character within the game and repair the pump.

You start as a group of three playful friends who met a creature called Nux. Each have very different appearences, strengths and weaknesses that fit perfectly together. 

Nux the Big One 

Nux is big and slow. They can pull heavy levers and objects. They are lonely and helplessly trying to fix the pump that is broken. Due to their size they have very limited access to most areas of the pump and their clumsiness obviously does not help. Nux stays around the area of the pump where the steam furnace is. 

Cheedo the Climber 

Cheedo is an expert climber of medium size and very pessimistic about things actually working out. That in combination with a lot of boredom and indifference makes this character rather reckless. But when shit gets real you know you can count on them. Cheedo explores the top of the pump where the turbine is. 

Dag the Tunneler 

Dag is rather small and prefers illuminated tunnels. A lot of enthusiasm and bravery radiates from them, which sometimes leads to situations that they deeply regret. For example when confronted with darkness, of which they are very afraid. Slightly inconvenient for someone who spends a lot of time underground. Dag explores the underground directly beneath the pump.

Ziggy the Swimmer 

Ziggy is a tiny aquatic creature. So small that even mundane tasks seem difficult when it comes to strength. But what they lack in physical strength is made up by a very quick and confident brain. they are also very vocal about things and like to underline some sentences with a dramatic note. Ziggy explores the water reserve below the pump and the underground.
