About Fez

When the existence of a mysterious 3rd dimension is revealed to him, Gomez is sent out on a journey that will take him to the very end of time and space. Use your ability to navigate 3D structures from 4 distinct classic 2D perspectives. Explore a serene and beautiful open-ended world full of secrets, puzzles and hidden treasures. Unearth the mysteries of the past and discover the truth about reality and perception. Change your perspective and look at the world in a different way.
Fez follows Gomez, a small creature who lives peacefully in what appears to be a flat, two-dimensional world. When he receives a red fez, he discovers that his world is actually one side of a larger three-dimensional space. As the fabric of that world begins to break apart, Gomez sets out to gather scattered cubes and restore order, exploring a quiet, wide-ranging landscape full of hidden secrets and the remnants of an ancient civilization that once tried to understand its own dimensions.
