LittleBigPlanet's cloth shop odds and sods look inspired a few imitators when it was first released, its mix of cuddly characters and twee noises striking a chord somewhere in even the darkest hearts.
ilomilo was one such post-Sackboy creation, and you can now play an enhanced version on your Windows 8 or RT tablet.
The game tells the story of Ilo and Milo, two cute creatures who like to meet everyday in the park. Unfortunately, that park is redesigned every day, so they need to find new routes to their rendezvous. And that's where you come in.

Summary
ilomilo is hampered by its control system, but if you can get past the frustration, you'll find a warm and welcoming game beyond
