Added DiffLines:

[[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/284537 Nevermore]] is a trilogy of platform games on Newgrounds created by user adamskii. The first game was a simple platformer with no plot, while the [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/300706 latter]] [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/488613 two]] games explain the plot behind the first one and expand on it.

The story is simple enough: A young boy called Olek is asked by his local shopkeeper, Tomous, to follow a map across the island they live on in search of treasure.

The games are mostly remembered for their serene atmospheres, as well as a focus on exploration and puzzles as opposed to battling enemies, with plenty of SceneryPorn to boot.
