Tin Hearts joins PlayStation Plus Extra catalog
Whimsical puzzle adventure game Tin Hearts for PS4 and PlayStation 5 consoles joins the PlayStation Plus Extra catalog today. Developed by Rogue Sun, the puzzler invites players to guide a troop of metallic toys through an obstacle course of contraptions.

The game's courses devised by Albert J. Butterworth, a genius inventor of an alternate-timeline Victorian era, are peppered with clues surrounding the tinkerer's backstory. The story is further expanded upon through voice over narration. Players can pause, fast-forward and rewind time to complete increasingly challenging puzzles, bouncing and gliding tin soldiers to their goal.

Music and sound design for the game is by Matthew Chastney, with eleven music tracks available for streaming on Spotify, YouTube Music and Amazon Music Unlimited. A behind-the-scenes video with the composer, joined by creative director Kostas Zarifis, can be viewed on the publisher's YouTube channel. The digital album is mastered by John Webber at Air Studios, with cover design by Daniel Jimenez.

Wired Productions previously published free PlayStation VR2 and SteamVR updates for Tin Hearts, also available for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and Series X|S, along with Windows through Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.
