The coming-of-age narrative adventure from developer Three Bees, Perfect Tides: Station to Station, arrives on Nintendo hardware today. Winner of the 2026 IGF Award for Excellence in Narrative, Station to Station follows Mara Whitefish through her first year of college and independence, full of authentic mid-2000s experiences.
Balance Mara’s time between educational pursuits, new (and old) relationships, and personal development as she searches for her place in the big city. Your choices decide whether Mara blossoms into a promising young author or languishes in obscurity and mediocrity.
Three Bees is an independent game development studio founded by cartoonist and animator Meredith Gran, creator of the hit webcomic Octopus Pie and the award-winning Perfect Tides, which debuted in 2022. Station to Station was released earlier this year on PC and Mac via Steam.
Three Bees partnered with CLICKPULP to improve the controller experience and manage the release of Nintendo Switch version. Perfect Tides: Station to Station is available now on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. You can watch the new release trailer below. I am playing through the game now, and my full review will be out soon.
