The Warp and the Weft

Description

The Warp and the Weft is a game where the player designs and manufactures tartan for various ghostly customers coming from different eras of Scottish history.  The customer's tastes are influenced by the era that they come from and will order a garment accordingly.  The player can experience crafting the dye, weaving the tartan, and tailoring the garment through three fast and intuitive minigames for all ages.
