"Kun’tewiktuk: A Mi’kmaw Adventure is a fantasy adventure game inspired by Mi’kmaw legend and folklore. It takes place in Unama'ki ("Land of the Fog"), which is known today as Cape Breton Island, Canada. It chronicles the adventures of two young siblings Wasuek (pr. "wuz-a-wek", the Mi'kmaw word for "Flower") and her brother U'n (pr. "oon", the Mi'kmaw word for "Fog").  The siblings get separated one summer morning and they go on an adventure through the spirit world to reunite."
